DescriptionThis is a seascape painting showing two children sitting on a craggy rock in the immediate foreground watching a tumultuous sea. The children are wearing dresses, one a turquoise colour and the other an off pink. There are other outcroppings of rock to the left of the children and at the top of the composition as if the viewer was standing above the scene and looking down. The sea spray is pink mixed with a light shade of turquoise.
