Artistic film of a family and baby at rural beachfront property

Item is an artistic film showing Erickson family members in several different scenes filmed at a residential property. In one scene, family members repair a fence and gather wood on the property. In another scene, two individuals are painting on canvases; one is sitting on a patio, while the other (portrayed by Arthur Erickson) stands on top of the house’s chimney while painting. In the next scene, a couple enters an outhouse and exits holding a baby; the baby is placed upon a poppy plant. In the next scene, the couple and their baby wade in several tide pools on a beach while wearing grass skirts that drag in the water. Following this, the family shares an outdoor meal on the property dressed in normal attire. The final scene shows the baby wading in the tide pools alone, playing with a toy boat. Individuals appearing in the film include Arthur Erickson, his parents, grandmother and brother.

Some of the scenes are filmed or edited in an artistic manner, such as showing the camera in the foreground of a shot, or splicing certain scenes into the film on negative instead of positive film.
