Decided to produce a body of work showing the entrances to the beach and beach pavilions of The Hague. Here you see a glimpse of  Zuid, with its two white flags and the Dutch flag. I like how the path splits in two, one leading to te beach and the other up through the dunes heading towards Schevening. The days are getting warmer, and although you don't see much activity, belief me, it was pretty busy.

It was such a fine Spring day, with beautiful clouds, typical of the Dutch skies this time of year. The color of the Sea was gorgeous and the dark blue shadows from the clouds made a great contrast to the earth toned turquoise colors of the Sea. Felt this scene needed a focal point so in the studio I painted in this Retriever with her boss communicating to her.
