Sunlit oil painting, vertical 9:16. An adult man with wet hair climbs out of a summer river onto a low wooden landing, framed from mid-thigh upward at water level. One hand grips the timber, his other hand pushes wet hair away from his forehead. Water runs down his shoulders and bare chest; simple navy swimming shorts cling heavily at the waist. He glances upward toward someone on the landing with a broad, slightly breathless grin, unmistakably pleased with the splash he has just caused. His posture carries the remaining momentum of the climb: raised shoulder, bent elbow, torso turning. Sculptural oil strokes build the lean body, thick broken highlights sparkle across water, loose wet-looking brushwork surrounds sharply observed eyes and hands. Physical, playful, exuberant.
