About Margaret Stanton's prints
Artist's Note: This piece combines the energetic movement of the water with the quiet softness of the mist. The darkest dark of the rocks brings out the lightest light of the crashing wave providing a strong center of interest. The mist originates from this place, softening any hard lines and dark areas as it goes so as not to compete. Of course, the viewer's eye will undoubtedly move. And, it's good to remember that in any landscape, the viewer's eye will want to travel to the farthest distant place in the painting before moving back. So, give the viewer something to see there as well.
