The Story Behind It

Beach Babes

Eric watched me painting live on a cruise ship around New Zealand, day after day, and was taken with the work. Shortly after the cruise he got in touch and told me all about his two girls, how different they are and yet such good friends.

He sent me tons of information on each of them, and pictures, so I could capture them for him to have at home all the time.

So we placed them on vacation at the beach together, a place they both loved. Their individual looks and style are all in there, the jewellery and the accessories, their favourite cocktails, their reading material, and even the little dog.

Eric then asked whether prints could be made for each of the girls, so both of his daughters have their own as well. One painting, and the whole family gets to keep it.

What the client said

“Beach Babes is wonderful! I can't believe how you managed to add in so many neat references to their lives. Can't wait to see it in the flesh! I think it would be really nice to have prints made for each of the girls. So excited by this project and so happy with the result.”
