    Summary: 
    "When Winslow Homer paints the sea, he studies it intently, taking in all its detail. With his easel set up, he is drawn back to the frothing waves smashing against rocks, gleaming like mirrors in the sunlight. He knows it takes patience to get his painting just right to capture the life and power of the ocean. Inspired by Homer's time on the rocky shores of Prouts Neck, Maine, Breaking Waves: Winslow Homer Paints the Sea describes the artist's process through the seasons, from balmy summers to stormy autumn skies, showing the many blues, grays, browns, and golds that Winslow Homer used to depict the changing sea and life by the shore. Additional content in the back of the book further explains his work and passion for the ocean, as evidenced by his trips to small coastal towns in England and the Cabribbean"--Provided by publisher.
