For those of you with low vision:
This painting depicts a bright day on a beach, a blue seascape, with a sycamore tree full of autumn's yellow leaves in the foreground and a deeply tanned woman in a yellow towel seen from behind. It is painted in transparent paint on several transparent layers of clear resin, letting ambient light bounce around within the painting. The palette is essentially just yellows, with siennas, and cyan blues. The eye is led to the interstices between the leaves where the sea or sky is glimpsed in blue shapes that metamorphose, rising up toward the top of the painting, into birds, a flock of bluebirds against a yellow sky.
