Kurt Vonnegut

One of the things that I tell beginning writers is this: If you describe a landscape, or a cityscape, or a seascape, always be sure to put a human figure somewhere in the scene. Why? Because readers are human beings, mostly interested in human beings. People are humanists. Most of them are humanists, that is.

To feel the grace of God in a painting of the dear, quiet commonness of a domestic interior, or in a landscape, seascape, cityscape, trains us to feel the grace of God in the thing itself in situ.

American Author

Claude Monet

I am working, but when one has ceased to do seascape, it is the devil afterward - very difficult; it changes at every instant, and here the weather varies several times in the same day.

French Artist

Seascape refers to artistic depictions, not just any sea view.

Artistic Focus

Use 'seascape' when the sea inspires you, like a painter inspired by the view.

Picture Inspiration

Seascapes can invoke feelings of calm or awe; it's not just visual.
