Between Land and Sea
Oil on canvas, 20”x24”

This oil painting by Yan Sun captures a vivid coastal moment where marine and everyday life intersect. The composition leads the viewer’s eye from the foreground, where a motorbike casts a crisp shadow, toward a row of docked fishing boats resting on land. The scene is energized by sunlight, which creates dramatic visual contrasts and highlights the textures of wood, metal, and sea-washed surfaces.

The strong brushwork and layered paint convey movement and materiality, from the grit of the ground to the distant glint of Mediterranean blue. Yan Sun’s use of color—warm ochres and cool blues—adds tension and harmony between natural and human-made elements. The motorbike, angled slightly as if just parked, adds a sense of human presence without depicting a figure. This scene is about a moment of pause in a working coastal life, resting between journeys on land and sea.
