Original artwork description
I liked the composition of the 2 figures in this work, adds an odd feel to it.
A beach is a place where people are partly naked yet unaware and in a 'natural' setting
so in some way this subject matter is timeless. I am drawn on the other hand to a nostalgic pleasure and it is difficult for me to separate the two, nostalgia from the depiction of pleasure if not impossible. This intersection is what I find interesting.
Materials used:
paper, graphite, oil paint
Details:
- Oil painting on Canvas
- One of a kind artwork
- Size: 50.8 x 40.64 x 0.25cm (unframed) / 50.8 x 40.64cm (actual image size)
- Signed on the back
- Style: Impressionistic
- Subject: People and portraits
