‘Shadow Play’ is painted using oil and acrylic on canvas. It is a large painting on an artist’s high quality Windsor and Newton stretcher which is warp resistant. The painting is made using large brushstrokes and the texture of the paint and brush marks are visible on the surface of the canvas. It is painted using a combination of oil and acrylic paint which gives it extreme vibrancy and shine in some areas. In some areas of the painting the oil pigment is fluorescent which gives intense strong colour.
 
 
Ruth Mulvie's painting depicts a view of Venice Beach in Santa Monica, inspired by photographs from a previous trip. The canvas is adorned with soft pink and purple hues, creating a dreamy atmosphere.

Through the trees, one can glimpse a staged photoshoot on the beach, with a photographer directing a girl amid bright shadows. Mulvie's artistry emphasizes the vibrant colors and gentle contrasts, creating a tranquil and captivating scene.
