General Notes

Description

A portrayal of a young woman standing and facing the wind on a beach with loose flowing clothing, and a twist in her frame that gives a strength and insouciance to her manner. Her face is serious and determined looking off in the distance. The scene is a bright beach with moderate crashing waves and a bit of sky beyond the horizon.

Theme

Facing life in a fresh, strong, vivacious way.

Emotional Sum or Sense-of-life

One gets the feeling that the young woman is able to stand strong in the world, with panache and beauty all at once.
