This striking artwork depicts a figure in flowing robes perched on a dramatic black and white striped pattern suggesting waves or ocean currents. The composition is set against a deep blue background with delicate pink cherry blossoms cascading from the upper right corner. The figure's dark hair streams behind them in the implied wind, while their kimono-style garment in soft beige and blue tones billows gracefully. The painting has a strong diagonal movement from upper right to lower left, created by both the striped wave pattern and the figure's pose. The overall effect is one of dynamic movement and harmony between the figure and natural elements, perfectly capturing the relationship between woman and sea suggested by the title.
