Original Swimming Pool Oil Painting by Stephan Smith

This is a large-scale original oil on canvas painting measuring 60x48 inches by the Palm Springs-based artist Stephan Smith. The artwork depicts a contemporary, minimalist swimming pool scene characterized by clean geometric lines and a vibrant, mid-century modern aesthetic reflective of Desert Modernism. The composition features a large expanse of turquoise water with delicate, expressive ripples in the foreground. In the upper left background, two white stylized lounge chairs sit on a concrete deck, framed by a dark green hedge. The pool's architecture is defined by light pink coping and deep blue interior walls with a set of submerged steps. The paint application appears smooth and matte, with precise hard-edge transitions between color fields. The work is signed 'Smith 15' in the lower right corner, indicating it was completed in 2015. The canvas is gallery-wrapped and appears to be in excellent condition with no visible surface abrasions, craquelure, or pigment loss. The craftsmanship reflects a high degree of control over perspective and color theory, typical of Smith's architectural and leisure-themed works.
