“Arise” by Hope Blakely
Witness the ocean’s power in motion.
Arise is an original oil painting on stretched canvas (9 × 12″) created in 2021, now elegantly framed to 14 × 17″. With bold, dynamic strokes, Hope captures a moment when waves crash over seaside rocks—spraying mist high into the air—and recede, revealing the raw, ever-changing dance of water and stone.
The composition balances the tension of crashing energy with the stillness of the shoreline beyond. Rich blues and foamy whites swirl together in a harmonious display of nature’s force and beauty. Whether you're drawn to coastal decor or simply want a statement piece with emotional depth, Arise brings both drama and calm to any space.
