Can't you just hear the giggles of this child as she runs toward the beach. Happiness is ... playing in the worlds largest sand box with a little red bucket.

Primary colors used in this painting are unbleached titanium white, phthalocyanine blue, phthalocyanine green, burnt sienna, raw sienna and white.

This is a mixed media painting with soft texture on the ocean's waves and the sand is softly texturized with Liquitex natural sand gel medium. The sand medium gives the painting a light sparkle, just like at the beach.
