I'm Swimming! Oil on Canvas 6 x6 available



   Another in the series of children at the beach this painting attempts to capture the moment when a young child is suspended in the water (or just above) for the first time. Here a young father is holding his young daughter so she just barely touches the water, as she grows comfortable with the sensation and the water. Here the bright sunlight bleaches the color in areas adding to the intensity of the scene. The refreshing cool blues in the water contrast to the implied heat of the bright light.
