This painting evokes the memory of family beach holidays and depicts a child discovering the delights of the sea with her mother. Perhaps the surfer is an older brother, or father…

This painting is framed with a simple grey float frame (see additional images). The 5 mm gap between the frame and the inner edge of the artwork panel creates a shadow and gives the illusion that the artwork is ‘floating’ within the frame. This enhances the overall effect, as it creates a sense of depth and draws the viewer’s eye to the artwork.
