The artwork features a dynamic sky filled with swirling clouds, ranging from deep blue to bright white, contrasted by the vibrant and abstract foreground depicting the sands. The bold use of colors like rich blues, sunny yellows, and fiery oranges creates an impressionistic style that evokes the ever-changing beauty of the Scottish coastline.
