Man, remember those holidays spent at the beach with the kids, building sandcastles, exploring rock pools, laying in the sun, watching the waves roll in, smelling the sea air? Maybe pretend fishing when you really did not wanna catch anything cos it meant killing, gutting and skinning something that was only minding its own business?

I do…fondly…

This was fun to do, cartoony, colourful, and just plain childlike…I was trying acrylics as water colours and it worked very well.

The scene is of Bunker Bay SW of Perth.
