About this work
A young woman in a swimsuit leaps upward with one arm raised to strike a volleyball, her body twisting in mid-air against a band of deep blue sea and sky. A second bikini-clad figure stands behind her near the net, and further along the shore other beachgoers and umbrellas appear in loose, sketchy strokes. The composition crops tightly around the leaping player, emphasizing the upward thrust of the action.
Thick, palette-knife strokes of coral pink, white, and ochre build the sunlit skin and swimwear against flat sweeps of ultramarine and teal for the water. Color is applied in broad slabs rather than blended detail throughout, producing a sense of speed, heat, and energetic movement.
