Description:
This charming landscape captures a peaceful coastal moment under a dramatic sunset sky. A small rowboat rests on the shore beside a quiet inlet, flanked by two trees and a pastel-hued cottage with a bright white chimney. The water stretches across the scene to a distant landmass where a tall lighthouse or spire stands silhouetted against glowing clouds.
The sky is a lively wash of lavender, coral, butter yellow, and pale blue, rendered with dynamic impressionist strokes that evoke a fleeting golden-hour light. The soft foreground is loosely painted in sandy pinks, pale ochres, and greens, with vegetation and brush hinted at through gestural marks. The overall effect is relaxed and contemplative, suggesting the end of a quiet day by the sea.
Despite signs of wear to the card, this piece retains a strong sense of atmosphere and charm. The landscape is likely inspired by the coastal regions of Brittany or Normandy—places where boats, lighthouses, and cottages are iconic features of the scenery. Lel’s approach, while light and free, still captures a narrative of solitude and simplicity.
Ideal for collectors who enjoy rustic maritime art, seascapes, or expressive coastal compositions, this work offers texture, light, and movement in a soft, inviting palette.

Changing Tides
By Maryann Lucas
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
An oil painting of the wetlands of Sag Harbor. Hues of greens, blues, whites and purples, make up this almost abstract landscape composition. Painted from life, at Noyac bay.
Painting dimensions: 36 x 24 inches
Framed dimensions: 40 x 28 inches
Maryann Lucas lives and works in Sag Harbor. She is primarily self-taught but has also received instruction and support from wonderful and generous members of the East End artistic community. Working exclusively in oils, Lucas sets out almost daily to create plein aire landscapes and seascapes. In her studio, she works directly from life and captures the beauty of natural light as it transforms ordinary objects into visual delights.
Lucas wants her work to celebrate all that is well with this world and brilliant in this life, despite its pockets of darkness.
For me, she says, I know I am in the Presence of something beautiful, when it steals my breath, silences my mind, pushes out everything else and draws me in. I trust That. I use That to guide my hands as I arrange a still life or scan a landscape to determine where to set down my easel. Ultimately, That is what drives me to paint.
Becoming evermore skilled as an oil painter is another of Lucas goals. To that end she remains teachable, finding it refreshing and vital for her own growth to paint with others. She has studied with favorite artists including Michael Klein...
