Impressionist-style painting depicting a rugged coastal landscape with a cliff overlooking the sea. The foreground features vibrant yellow and green brushstrokes representing grassy areas, while the cliff sides show a mix of earthy reds, browns, and greens. The ocean is rendered in deep blues with white highlights indicating waves crashing against the rocks. The sky above is a soft blue with gentle brushstrokes suggesting a calm atmosphere.
