Paloma's View, Paloma Beach | French Riviera Art Print

Those who know, know.

Inspired by many summers spent at Paloma Beach in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Paloma's View is a contemporary art print celebrating one of the most iconic coastal landscapes on the French Riviera. Beyond the quiet bay, gleaming white superyachts, sailboats and catamarans gather offshore, while stand-up paddleboarders, swimmers and beachgoers create a gentle choreography across the blue Mediterranean throughout the summer. The result is a timeless celebration of European summer, Mediterranean landscapes and life on the Côte d'Azur.

Reproduced from my original mixed-media painting, this contemporary coastal art print combines acrylic painting with hand-painted paper collage to create a balance of graphic simplicity, layered textures and expansive Mediterranean blues. Crisp collage elements bring rhythm and depth to the composition, echoing the clean geometry of the yachts and sailboats against the organic movement of the clouds and dramatic coastline.

Whether it reminds you of summers on the Côte d'Azur, afternoons watching yachts from Paloma Beach or the timeless beauty of the French Riviera, Paloma's View brings the calm, colour and elegance of Mediterranean living into your home.

Available as an unframed art print, ready to frame in the size and style of your choice.

Inspirations

Paloma's View is my interpretation of what feels like a cross section of the French Riviera. Rather than focusing on one postcard-perfect moment, I wanted to celebrate the many layers that make this coastline so captivating—from the beach and swimmers in the foreground, to the calm Mediterranean filled with paddleboarders, sailboats, catamarans and superyachts, all set against the dramatic cliffs of Beaulieu-sur-Mer and Èze, with Monaco and the Italian coastline beyond.

Inspired by countless summers spent swimming, stand-up paddleboarding and sketching around Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, the artwork brings together different seasons, weather conditions and moments into one carefully composed Mediterranean landscape. It is a celebration of European summer and one of the world's most beautiful coastlines.

Creative Process

Although inspired by a real place, Paloma's View is not a documentary of one particular day or one particular view. It is a carefully constructed reinterpretation that brings together observations gathered over many visits to Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, combining different seasons, weather conditions and moments into a single Mediterranean seascape. The composition was intentionally reconstructed to emphasize the calm horizontality of the yachts, sailboats and paddleboard against the organic movement of the clouds and dramatic cliffs, creating a dialogue between stillness and energy.

Swimming, stand-up paddleboarding and sketching by the water became an essential part of the process. Back in the studio, I developed the painting in acrylic on canvas before refining it with hand-painted paper collage, adding a graphic edge beneath the paddleboard and on the superyacht. Individually cut collage elements introduce crisp graphic accents and subtle texture, reinforcing the balance between organic forms, clean geometry and the layered beauty of the French Riviera.
