Patrick von Kalckreuth painted waves so convincingly it’s hard to fathom. You can hear them breaking.

Really beautiful. Thank you for introducing me to this painter! I wasn't familiar with his work, but I love the ocean and these really speak to me. Lovely

I nearly scrolled past these, thinking they were just more photos from the storm on the north Cornish coast over the last few days, they’re phenomenal

Reminds me of The Icebergs by Frederic Edwin Church. Not waves but gives me the same vibes of realism.
