Sandy toes

30 x 30 (1.5” deep)

2024

Sandy Toes is an ode to shoreline wanderings — that quiet, contented rhythm of bare feet tracing wet sand as the tide slides in and out.

With warm undertones and softened transitions between water, sky, and shore, this piece hums with familiarity. It evokes the memory of salt air, sun-warmed skin, and the gentle hush of waves just out of frame.

Technique & Craftsmanship

Built up through many translucent layers of oil on gallery-wrapped canvas, Sandy Toes achieves a luminous depth that shifts subtly with the surrounding light.

The painted edges extend the composition seamlessly, inviting a continuous visual experience from every angle.

Signed by the artist and sealed with a UV-protective varnish, the piece is crafted to preserve its vibrancy for years to come.

A Note from Laura

There’s a certain stillness that only comes when you’re walking the beach alone, early in the day or just before dusk. The world goes quiet, and it’s just you, your thoughts, and the rhythm under your feet.

That was the feeling I was chasing with Sandy Toes. Not a grand seascape, but the intimacy of that moment — grounded, gentle, and deeply familiar.
