In "Restlessness of Sea and Stone", the narrative dives deeper into the ceaseless battle between the sea and the land. This illustration paints a vivid picture of the relentless waves clashing against the steadfast cliffs, eroding and shaping them, in a timeless struggle. It explores the symbiotic yet combative relationship between the sea and the stone, portraying how both are shaped and defined by their interaction. The artist captures the eternal dance of nature's forces, inviting viewer to ponder the profound lessons hidden in the restless movements of sea and stone.
The narrative not only sketches the grand canvas of nature's relentless cycle but also mirrors the human condition. The ceaseless clash between the waves and the cliffs serves as a metaphor for the struggles and resilience inherent in the human spirit. It is a reflection of life's adversities, of standing steadfast amidst the storms of challenges, and the beauty of being shaped by them. Each wave, with its rise and fall, echoes our own experiences of loss and recovery, reminding us that just like the stone, we are sculpted into existence by our trials. The painting extends an invitation to the viewer to find solace and strength in the enduring dance of sea and stone, recognizing the parallel struggles within our own lives, and encouraging a deeper understanding and acceptance of the ebb and flow of existence."

"My work as an artist named Anli is an elaborate exploration of the human experience. Through the vibrant strokes of my paintbrush and the rich hues of colour, I seek to convey the depths of emotion and thought that often go unnoticed. As a resident of South Africa, I am inspired by the rugged landscape and raw beauty of this land, and I strive to incorporate its essence into my art. My canvas becomes a wall art masterpiece, with each painting, charcoal drawing, and sketch becoming a manifestation of my soul. Join me on this journey of self-expression as I invite you to experience the magic of my work."
Keep your oil painting away from direct sunlight and heat. Excess exposure to light causes painted surfaces to lighten or darken. LED lamps are safest for illumination. Strong, direct sunlight and heat could create cracks and blisters to appear on your oil painting.
Uniform temperature and humidity – Extreme variations in heat and humidity result in canvases and wood frames to expand and contract. Paint is not as resilient as wood and canvas and fluctuations in heat and humidity can cause cracking throughout the layers of paint.
