Description

Watercolor on paper by Vining Sherman depicting three individuals on a sunlit tropical beach, focused intently on something in the shallow, crystal-clear water below them. A lone palm tree stands to the right, its fronds arching gracefully over the scene, while a small sailboat glides across the calm, turquoise ocean in the background.
