It's a beautiful day on the beach. Shark!? What!! A new painting by Mas.s mirroring our deepest joys and fears.

Mas.s has orchestrated this summer composition.Using his techniques,styles and unique figures relaying his feel for organised chaos and casual precision.He says "I was really able to bring my humour in the figures and scene, it makes me smile and giggle when I look at this painting." It's absurdly beautiful and touchingly absurd,showing the versatility of this original Dutch painter.
