Leasure’s studies of Californian sea, shore, and beaches emote the vibrancy and movement of the natural scenes depicted, and keep them alive in his wall art paintings. Though many of Leasure’s works are oil paintings, in “Girl Dancing on Liquid Gold”, he makes use of many delicate layers, thus producing the multi-colored, shimmering effect. In this piece, the movement of the girl seems to be at one with the dancing wave as it rolls towards her and she runs to greet it. The angles of her body in motion match the free-flowing, unfettered movement of the wave. The spectrum of colors seen in a summer sunset reflect in the water and the crashing wave. The girl dances upon the still, shallow water, which is smooth and golden. The shiney amber surface she glides upon to meet the wave, conveys the precious gift of nature as the basis of life. The innocence of youth has no conflict with nature and so it gives her a royal status – a golden road on which to tread. The delight of the spirited girl and the sheer beauty of the sunset colors reflected in the ever-moving sea, uplift the spirit to the untroubled state where it always longs to reside.

Light and motion are masterfully portrayed in this unique painting of a girl on the beach touching the tide on a sunlit morning.

My daughter and I decided to go for a walk on the beach one morning in the summer. The ocean was at its peak tide about an hour before we arrived. As we walked, she was rather quiet. At times, she would let go of my hand and wander along the beach kicking up the water. The early morning sunlight was dancing on every ripple. Sometimes she would just stop and let the sand squish between her toes. The receding sands would gradually burry her feminine little feet. The tide was now on its way out. With each wave, the water would retreat a little further. By the time we were up the beach, scattered rocks laden with sea life were protruding from the sand at the ocean’s altering edge. Each wave would come in and change the abstract patterns in the sand. Snake like bulbs of kelp that had come in to explore the beach were now trapped. The backlit seaweed swayed in the churning waters. The morning sun was shinning from behind my daughter and illuminating the transparent liquid floor that shifted at her feet. Just then, she bent over to touch the tide.
