IN THE CHOP OF THE STORM is a monumental triptych that plunges viewers into the heart of oceanic turbulence. This powerful three-panel composition captures the raw, untamed energy of storm-tossed seas in a dramatic panoramic format that commands attention and transforms any space.
Swirling masses of deep indigo, Prussian blue, and teal surge across the canvas, punctuated by explosive whites and grays that evoke crashing waves and wind-whipped spray. The artist's vigorous, expressive brushwork creates a sense of constant motion—each panel flows seamlessly into the next, building a cohesive narrative of nature's formidable power. Dark undertones suggest the ocean's unfathomable depths, while lighter passages capture the frothy chaos of surface turbulence.
The triptych format enhances the immersive quality of the work, creating a cinematic, wraparound effect that draws viewers into the tempest. Bold impasto techniques and layered paint application give the surface remarkable dimensionality, with ridges and valleys that catch light and cast shadows, adding physical depth to the visual drama.
