Polynesia. Where the horizon burns low and the sea carries fire in its wake.

Ember Tide in Polynesia captures a powerful emerald wave folding forward beneath a sky of molten reds and golds. Palm silhouettes anchor the coastline while reflections ripple across the surface below, mirroring the last light of day in streaks of amber and jade.

Capsule Tales are narrative works as much as visual ones. Secured to the back of this original painting is a wax-sealed envelope containing a short, original story written specifically to accompany the piece. The story does not explain the wave — it extends it, offering a deeper current beneath the surface and inviting the collector into the atmosphere beyond the frame.

This original 11 x 14 mixed-media painting is created on canvas-covered board and sealed in clear resin to enhance depth and luminosity. It arrives ready to hang with hardware installed and includes a Certificate of Authenticity attached to the reverse.
