Shoes on the Beach

Shoes on the Beach is an original acrylic and mixed-media painting on a double-platform 18" x 14" canvas — a moment of pure, sun-warmed stillness at the edge of the sea. A woman stands with her back to us, one hand raised to shade her eyes as she gazes out toward the horizon, where the sun hangs low over a luminous stretch of deep turquoise and teal water. Her full-skirted white dress — its bodice delicately open at the back in a deep V — is scattered with small white daisy-like embellishments that catch the light like sea foam. Her dark hair is swept up loosely, a glimmering hair clip holding it in place. At her feet, where sand meets water, she stands in real Barbie shoes — tiny, perfectly formed white heels that bridge the world of paint and play with quiet, knowing charm. The sky above glows in soft lilac and pale gold. She is looking out. The ocean is looking back. Pure paint, real Barbie shoes, pure sea dream. A one-of-a-kind original by Branka, created once and never again.
