Prompt

Full-screen, complete width, broad, 16:9 format of a heavy impasto acrylic painting of poem number 72, Yūshi Naishinnō-ke no Kii, of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu: "Famous are the waves / That break on Takashi beach / In noisy arrogance. / If I should go near that shore, / I would only wet my sleeves." A pretty, young, teenage Japanese girl is walking along the beach, dressed in a bathing suit and a short, open, floral-patterned silk kimono in sumptuous colors as a cover-up. She is barefoot, and skipping away from a wave that threatens to lap her feet. The sun is shining brightly, and it is a beautiful day in summer. The sky is bright blue and cloudless. The young girl is alone, joyful and content on her lone beach walk. The beach is completely empty. Sand dunes are covered in dune vegetaion. Painstakingly and masterfully executed contemporary acrylic painting. Beach ambiance perfectly captured in quick, thick impasto brushstrokes.
