On the tropical beaches of Sihanoukville, Cambodia a bunch of kids have been given paint brushes and canvas for the first time in their lives. It's a small break from trying to earn a living selling fruit and collecting cans from the tourists on the beaches every day. It's a great scene as they giggle and jostle with each other to get to the colours; they look like kids having fun, not just working to stay alive.

The extraordinary thing about the pictures is how fresh their eyes are and how un-selfconscious the outpouring of art is.

This KidsArtCambodia site is to show you what they've been up to in a series of photo galleries and provide details so you can drop by Serendipity Beach and be a part of it too. For the kids and the transient tourist world they live in, a permanant record of their mark on the world is very hard to come by and very important for their self esteem.
