This striking portrait is called Charlie, a figure adorned in a vibrant yellow striped shirt, exuding a sense of playful confidence. The stylized glasses, with their warm-toned lenses, add a quirky touch that invites curiosity. The background, a soft green, creates a calming atmosphere, allowing the subject's expression to take center stage.

Drawing inspiration from coastal life and the nostalgia of family photographs, this piece embodies a balance of observation and imagination. It evokes memories of sun-soaked days and leisurely strolls, where every detail tells a story.

Perfect for those who appreciate the interplay of color and character, this artwork is a delightful addition to any space, inviting reflection and conversation.

This painting was created from my imagination but inspired by photographs of swimmers in days gone by and people I see by the Marina in Brightlingsea.

This painting is on paper and is in a white vinyl frame ready to hang.
