Beachin' by Alison Vernon6x12, oil
The beach slowly populates as the morning passes. Lounging in a beach chair with a novel, I can't help but observe the patterns of the people around me. My attention mostly follows the families with young children. There is something delightful about watching children at the beach. Children are very enterprising with their red shovels and blue buckets. The children and babies need constant attention. Parents work double-time watching, feeding, smearing sunscreen, comforting tears and encouraging naps on sandy beach towels. They eventually leave the beach exhausted. In the car, everyone falls immediately to sleep as Dad drives the long drive home.
