“Surf Zone II” — Hand‑Painted Silk Wall Hanging

This hand‑painted silk artwork reflects the delicate meeting place between ocean and land—a surf zone that is always shifting, always alive, and often remembered as a place of healing, celebration, or quiet reflection. The piece captures that sense of movement and renewal, offering a gentle reminder of time spent by the water.

Created with permanent textile dyes, the artwork hangs from wooden bars at the top and bottom in a sand‑toned finish that complements the palette. Hanging dimensions are 14 x 32 inches. As with all silk artwork, it is best displayed out of direct sunlight to preserve color over time.

Artist Carol Sullivan’s work is shaped by a lifetime spent around boats, coastal travel, and the shifting moods of nature, which she interprets through sea, sky, flora, and fauna. Her silk‑dye process ranges from loose and impressionistic to controlled and detailed, with constant experimentation keeping her work fresh and evolving. A graduate of the Maryland Institute College of Art, she has developed unique textile techniques—including gyotaku fish printing—and her fabric art has been featured in galleries in Maryland, Maine, and the Bahamas with an international following.
