“BETWEEN TIDES” is an original mixed-media beach painting by db Waterman. The artwork shows a warm summer day at the seaside, filled with sunlight, open space, and a calm atmosphere.
Like many works by db Waterman, this painting combines rough textures, layered materials, and weathered surfaces with a quiet human presence. The result is a contemporary coastal artwork with both an urban and natural feeling.
The painting focuses on the connection between people and places. Beaches often become part of our personal memories. They remind us of holidays, freedom, childhood, silence, or moments spent with family and friends. “BETWEEN TIDES” explores that idea in a simple and direct way.
The work is not about a specific location, but about the feeling that certain places can stay with us for years.
The mixed-media technique plays an important role in the character of the painting. Different materials and textures create depth and give the surface a raw, tactile appearance.
Layers of paint, distressed elements, and subtle marks make the artwork feel lived-in and authentic. These rough details contrast with the bright summer atmosphere and help create balance within the composition.
Figures appears within the landscape, something often seen in the work of db Waterman. The figures are small compared to the environment, which creates a sense of space and stillness. Rather than telling a fixed story, the painting leaves room for personal interpretation. Viewers may recognize their own memories and emotions in the scene.
The colors used in “BETWEEN TIDES” are inspired by the coast: warm sunlight, faded sand tones, soft blues, and weathered textures. Together they create a relaxed summer feeling without becoming overly decorative.
The painting has a contemporary look that fits well in modern interiors, while still carrying a strong emotional atmosphere.
This artwork is both semi-abstract and figurative. The beach setting and silhouette are recognizable, but the textures and layered surfaces add an abstract edge. That combination gives the work its own identity and makes it suitable for collectors who appreciate original contemporary art with character and depth.
db Waterman is known for creating artworks that combine urban influences with quiet landscapes and human moments. In “BETWEEN TIDES,” those elements come together naturally. The painting reflects the idea that memories are often connected to places. A beach, a horizon, or the feeling of warm sunlight can stay with us long after the moment has passed.
“BETWEEN TIDES” is more than a beach painting. It is a work about recognition, atmosphere, and the lasting impact of summer memories. The artwork captures a familiar feeling that many people understand: the wish to hold on to peaceful moments that seemed simple at the time, but later become important memories.
This original mixed-media artwork is available through the online store of db Waterman. It offers collectors the opportunity to bring a timeless coastal atmosphere into their living or working space through a unique, handcrafted piece of contemporary art.
