At the heart of the composition, two little boys frolic playfully on the sandy shore, their carefree spirit reflecting the joyful energy of youth. The artist wants to capture the innocence and wonder of childhood and evoke a sense of nostalgia in the viewer.
The white abstract background serves as a canvas for the sun's glare, its intense rays radiating outward and enveloping the entire scene in a warm, luminous glow. db Waterman's choice of an abstract background transcends the limitations of a traditional seascape, allowing the audience to perceive the beach as an ethereal dream scape, where time stands still and the beauty of the moment is eternal.
In the foreground of the painting are wooden panels. Reminiscent of an old, remote boat or beach hut, these weathered panels evoke a sense of history and a charming coastal nostalgia.
"Between Tides" is an interaction between nature and human presence. It serves as a visual testament to the inextricable link between our fondest memories and the places where we found solace and joy in the past. The artwork is about the eternal summer days of our childhood, where the warmth of the sun and the laughter of carefree playmates remain forever in our hearts.

db Waterman is a contemporary Dutch artist. In her works she assembles original photography, assorted papers, acrylics, oil, charcoal, ink, and pencil. The variety of resources she is able to use has proved indispensable to her. The biggest challenge the collage medium posed was its unforgiving lack of transparency. Finding a way to replicate the effects of transparency afforded by paint, especially watercolors, was a large victory for the artist. The preparing labor shows through in her collages; layer upon layer of material remains visible in the finished pieces.
db Waterman believes that the body of her work is characterized by her skill for reinvention. Having always loved the appearance of weathered walls plastered with peeling paint and old posters, she revived this aesthetic with hopefully a keen and professional eye. The creative objective of her work is to “make something beautiful out of dilapidation.” Her tableaus explore the dissonance between old and new materials, intertwined in the most beautiful way possible to create dreamlike and melancholy images.
