The pebble portrait in oils by Stella Tooth

One of my autobiographical oil portraits that I hope awake universal memories of childhood for all. This was Exmouth, one of our favourite holiday spots, where dad and I could spend hours looking in the area's amazing rockpools.  Dad has in his hand a pebble ideal for skimming.  He would read the water and then let it skim through the air while I counted the times it hit the water on its journey.

Oil on canvas. Framed.
