The buildings are depicted in cool tones of blue and gray, with minimal detailing, allowing them to blend harmoniously into the landscape. The contrast between the natural elements and the man-made structures adds an interesting dynamic to the composition. Above, the sky is a blend of soft blues, pinks, and purples, painted with light, airy brushstrokes that suggest fluffy clouds on a sunny day. The sky's reflection in the water is rendered with similar colors, creating a cohesive and balanced composition. "Sails at Sea" celebrates the peaceful coexistence of nature and human presence.
