"Dune" Giclée Print

This is a painting of the beautiful sand dunes in NW Florida. The sand is so incredibly white because it consists of pure, small quartz particles which came from the Appalachian Mountains. Over thousands of years, as the Appalachian Mountains weathered, quartz and other particles were washed down through the Apalachicola River, ending in the Gulf. As the sediment-filled water reached the Gulf, the lighter quartz particles were left to form the beautiful, pristine beaches. Centuries of tidal friction against the quartz left us with the small, fine-grained sand we enjoy along the Emerald Coast beaches today.

This print is a part of “The Coastal Dune Lakes” Collection. Learn more about this collection and my inspiration HERE.
