Where Gold Meets Blue

About this piece

Tall palms and a small lifeguard tower punctuate a sandy shoreline beneath a sky graduating from gold to blue. A curved white wall carries reflected light through the foreground, guiding the eye along the brick promenade toward the sea. Dark trunks and streetlamps give the luminous coastal scene a measured rhythm.

The story

December meets the shore in bands of blue and gold. Light rests along the white wall, tracing its bend beside the sand. Beyond the palms, the lifeguard tower stands above a narrow ribbon of shining water. One lamp glows amber beneath its dark shade, a small echo of the horizon.
