Beautiful Oceanscape Oil Painting by Todd Kenyon
He doesn’t surf. He doesn’t swim. He’s terrified of sharks. Not what you’d expect from Laguna Beach artist and gallery owner Todd Kenyon, who’s known for his large-scale ocean scapes that are so realistic, they often are mistaken for photographs.
Moving to Southern California in 1998 from the East Coast, Todd Kenyon became inspired to create a body of work that captures the unique beauty of the Laguna Beach coastline. Todd’s paintings can be seen year-round at his studio connected to the purelagunabeach gallery.
Todd’s work captures the multifaceted spirit of the ocean. Step back and the viewer is taken in by the force of the crashing surf, a step closer shifts the focus to subtle color fields that mimic the reflective quality of light against sand and water.
Painting shown is an example of Todd work, not auction item.
