Surfer 3 | Oil painting on canvas

Description

The oil painting Surfer N° 3 (Alvaro) is an original expressionist artwork made by artist Arturo Laime. Original: oil on canvas, 40 × 50 cm

Surfer N°3 (Álvaro)

This artwork captures the exhilaration of riding the Pacific swell, its surface rendered with brisk, layered brushstrokes that shift between jade, turquoise, and soft violets. The composition places the surfer in dynamic tension with the wave, his stance angled forward as the crest gathers beneath his board, creating a sense of both motion and suspension.

The painting reflects the luminous Pacific coastline of Peru, where the sport is both a pastime and a cultural pulse. Here, the figure becomes a focal point of balance and agility, his silhouette cutting through the shifting water with a quiet determination.

This work also carries a personal resonance: the surfer is inspired by the artist’s brother, whose shared days in the ocean became a spark for the entire Surfers series. That connection adds a layer of warmth to the piece—an undercurrent of memory and lived experience that enriches its sense of place.
