Marjorie on the BeachEntry/Object ID
1994.13.0004Description
Acrylic on canvas portrait by Vaughn Gibson depicting a tranquil beach scene illustrated in a flat, minimalist style with subdued colors. Marjorie Paul Shook is seated on the sandy shore, holding a red umbrella. She appears relaxed, gazing towards the sea, which stretches into the horizon to meeting a clear sky. Her attire, a flowing dress with a vivid floral pattern, contrasts elegantly against the simple color blocks of the beach and ocean. The scene is calming, with a small mangrove island visible in the distant water.Type of Painting
