Description
Photograph of painting of ocean waves against a large cliff by Chris Siemer, [s.d.]. To the right, large waves can be seen rippling through the ocean. At left, a large wave in the shape of an arc can be seen moving towards a cliff wall at the far left. The rocky cliff tilts at a slight angle into the water, and a small extension can be seen protruding from the water's surface. In the extreme background, the ocean appears calm with no waves. In the lower-left corner of the image, the words "Chris Siemer" have been painted on the image.
