Seascape Moonlight with Crashing Waves Vintage British Oil Painting
Signed to lower left
Art measures 20 x 16 inches
Frame measures 24 x 20 inches
This painting depicts a serene and dramatic coastal scene under a moonlit sky. The full moon, partially obscured by wispy clouds, casts a silvery light across the turbulent ocean waves and rocky shoreline. The waves crash against the dark, jagged rocks, creating white foam that glistens in the moonlight. The reflection of the moon on the water adds a sense of depth and tranquility to the composition. In the distance, a shadowy landmass can be seen, adding to the painting's sense of vastness and mystery.
Peter Cosslett was born in Cardiff in 1927. Cosslett started his working life in the merchant marines, where he first became fascinated with the power of the sea. After the war he took up painting as a pastime. Cosslett has made coastal subjects very much his speciality; the sea crashing over the rocks, long lazy waves breaking on the beach, moonlight glinting through the surf. In the chaos of modern life, these images represent escapism and relaxation and inevitably have an enduring appeal as rich oils on canvas.

Moonlight Bay Atmospheric Abstract Seascape Art by Contemporary British Artist
By Angela Wakefield
Located in Preston, GB
Moonlight Bay Atmospheric Abstract Seascape Painting by Leading Contemporary British Artist, Angela Wakefield
Art measures 31.5 x 31.5 inches
Frame measure 37 x 37 inches
This painting is an exquisite example of abstract expressionism, capturing the viewer's imagination with its evocative use of colour and form. The artist skillfully blends deep, moody blacks and grays with vibrant splashes of pink, orange, and yellow, creating a dynamic contrast that suggests a dramatic sunset or a tempestuous sky. The interplay of light and dark tones brings a sense of depth and movement to the piece, inviting the viewer to interpret the scene through their own lens.
The broad, expressive brushstrokes and layers of colour give the painting a textured, almost tactile quality, adding to its visual intrigue. This complexity in texture and color makes it a compelling focal point for any room, drawing the eye and sparking conversation.
The artwork is beautifully framed in an elegant, slightly distressed gold frame that complements the richness of the painting, adding a touch of sophistication and timelessness. This combination of contemporary abstract style with a classic frame makes it versatile for various interior settings, from modern minimalist to more traditional decors.
Ideal for collectors who appreciate the emotional and interpretative power of abstract art, this painting offers a unique blend of intensity and tranquility. It not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of a space but also provides a window into the artist's creative vision, making it a truly captivating piece for any art enthusiast.
Angela Wakefield has twice been on the front cover of ‘Art of England’ and featured in ARTnews, attracting international attention and critical acclaim with her urban landscape paintings of New York, London & the North of England. The style of painting has been described as ‘contemporary realism’, and is often favourably compared with Edward Hopper by collectors and art critics. Angela’s work is held in private collections in Europe and the USA, including the British Royal Family. Her admirers include leading figures in international business, filmmaking and the media.
