The inspiration for this piece came one hot, late summer afternoon on Cala Contita beach in Ibiza. I sketched a small line drawing on a fold of paper to enlarge in the studio later.
This small beach (Cala) at the base of a narrow stepped pathway down it's cliffs was endowed, among its dwellers, with beautiful women, dressed & naked, all soaking in the sunshine, each in their own World. The Chiringuito on the entry path & rocks was filled with happy socializers & onlookers. The view, ocean, sun, sounds, people, colors & feel, swirled around me as I laid back on the waters edge enjoying it all.
