The record
On the Gold Coast, Snapper Rocks sits at the southern end of Rainbow Bay, with Coolangatta along the shore beyond.
The print takes a view from above the rocks. Dark stone and green plants fill the foreground, while pale sand curves around turquoise water towards a simplified skyline. The buildings remain small beside the sweep of the bay.
What this print shows
I used the bay's long curve as the main drawing gesture and kept the distant city secondary. The dark foreground gives the bright water a clear boundary, while simplified wave bands add motion without describing a specific session. People, event structures and reserve branding were removed so the natural coastline and urban distance could identify Snapper Rocks on their own.
