Splash

Joanne Willoughby's ability to capture the movement of the Atlantic isn't reserved for large-format paintings. Splash proves that even in miniature, she can convey the power, beauty, and unpredictability of the sea with remarkable realism.

A breaking wave crashes against the rocks, sending brilliant white spray into the air while deep blue-green water rolls toward the shore below. Working in soft pastel, Joanne layers rich color, subtle texture, and expressive mark-making to create an original painting that feels full of motion. Every glance reveals something new—from the translucent water beneath the crest to the misty foam suspended for just a moment before it disappears.

Professionally framed with premium Water White glass, Splash offers exceptional clarity with virtually no color distortion, allowing the delicate pastel work and rich coastal palette to be seen exactly as the artist intended. Its compact size makes it easy to display on a bookshelf, bedside table, desk, or gallery wall, and it also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves the South Carolina coast or collects original artwork.

Whether purchased as a first original Joanne Willoughby or added to an existing collection, Splash is a wonderful reminder that some of the most captivating moments along the shoreline happen in an instant.
