An artist has recreated a giant version of Gustav Klimt's famous 'The Kiss' masterpiece on a beach in time for Valentine’s Day.
Claire Eason, 57, spent four hours painstakingly carving the 40ft picture into the sand on Beadnell Bay in Northumberland using a garden rake.
The retired GP was inspired by the natural rock formations on the beach which she incorporated into her tribute to Klimt’s 1908 artwork.
The stunning footage shows the earthly coloured rocks surrounded by bold and delicate lines of sand to recreate the famous image of the two people kissing.
Claire, who has two grown-up children and lives in Sunderland, said: "Klimt, and that particular painting has always been a favourite of mine, I love the shimmery, dreamy effect of it.
