Description

In Waves is best observable Altamouras’ eschewing of any anecdotal description of the object, in which it is apparent that the painter is not concerned with the precise depiction of the subject, but with the isolation of one particular motif and the rendering of a picture of it, as this is differentiated by constant movement under the influence of the light.
