Mid afternoon at the beach. A good time for a dip. A slight oversight and a damsel in distress. Misery written all over her face. Painted in oil on canvas, 'an afternoon dip' is an attempt to capture the agony and the beauty of a female body in the beautiful backdrop of a sea beach. Perfect waves hitting the shore in the afternoon sun. It is always difficult to capture the true beauty of a female figure. The nuances, the curves, the symmetry and the subtle beauty is to be kept in consideration and proportion. It is never an easy job recreating what is already the most beautiful.
