Description :

This original watercolor and ink painting, titled "Ebb Tide", is a stunning example of Alene B. Holden’s artistic vision. Known for her contributions to the Pacific Northwest art scene, Holden’s work captures the interplay of light, movement, and atmosphere with delicate brushwork and expressive ink detailing. The painting evokes a sense of tranquility and transition, reflecting the ebb and flow of nature’s rhythm.

There is a small water stain lower left corner of the matting (uncertain if this impacts the actual art).  Art is framed and under glass.

Mrs. L.E. (Alene) Holden was an artist and art teacher active in the Pacific Northwest, particularly around Seattle, Washington. She participated in art exhibitions, including the third annual Arts and Crafts Show in White Center in 1959, where she was photographed putting the finishing touches on an oil painting. Her work appears to have been well-regarded within local artistic circles.
