That's where I'd like to be! On the beach in Tahiti! Gauguin went to Tahiti in 1891 to escape fame, family, middle class existance. Some days, that sounds good too!
I wouldn't want to live near or on a Tahiti beach Carol. Queensland was bad enough. Beautiful beaches. Hot sea!!! Where do you go to cool off with a swim? Nowhere. You move south to Tasmania and cool off in the cool sea!!! Perfect.

There is something about his Tahitian girls that always bothered me.
I always feel like I am looking at a masters painting of his sex slaves. The women seem... repressed. Unhappy. It is unsettling.
Maybe it is just me, but I prefer his work pre Tahiti.
