Beach Tidal Pools Reflecting the Sky in Gel Relief

Tidal pools on dark rock shelves at low tide reflect an apricot and lavender evening sky in translucent acrylic gel relief over opaque paint.

Prompt

An obviously hand-painted artwork, not a photograph: sparse raised translucent acrylic gel strokes laid over flat opaque painted shapes, so lower colours show beneath visible ridges, with simplified forms, thick brush-and-gel marks and no photographic detail; the relief stays shallow. A beach of dark rock shelves at low tide with several tidal pools of different sizes holding mirrored sky, each pool outlined by wet rock, with limpet-covered ridges and thin sheets of water running between the pools toward a calm sea. Light: a clear early evening with a pale apricot and lavender sky, the pools as translucent gel windows reflecting apricot, lavender and cyan over dark opaque rock, thin gel ridges tracing water flow as leading lines toward the horizon. Palette of apricot, lavender, cyan, charcoal and sea green; luminous, tactile, polished. Wide 16:9 landscape frame. No people, boats, readable text, signs or logos.
