Original artwork description:

**this painting is sold un-stretched, and needs to be put on a stretcher before hanging.**

This painting is of a London Lido in the height of summer, I like the warm back lighting in this image. I also just like pools and diving into them.. but more than I am drawn to depictions of leisure as beach or pool 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.
