Artist Comments
Broad strokes of blue and green merge with the strong lines of the figure to create a sense of lightness and buoyancy. "This painting was inspired by a holiday in the French Riviera with my daughter," says Robin. "Immersed in the warmth of the sun and sand, the blues of the water and sky, and the backdrop of the mountains, the feeling was beyond ease."
