Uimarannalla is an unspecified by Santeri Salokivi, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a sandy beach with two people. One person is lying on their stomach, wearing a dark swimsuit, with their head resting on their arms. The other person stands nearby in a striped shirt and hat, looking toward the water. The sky is light with soft clouds, and the waves are gentle. The artist used thick brushstrokes, especially on the sand and water, giving it a textured look. The colors are warm—pinks, yellows, and blues—making the scene feel sunny. Look up impasto next to see how this thick paint technique works.
