Ocean Within.

Size & Medium.

80cm x 60cm

Acrylic on stretched canvas

Description.

This painting was created for a proud Kamilaroi woman who finds peace and joy in the ocean and surfing. At the heart of the piece are symbols of deep family connection, honouring her strong bond with her mum, siblings, nieces, nephews and extended family — as well as the memory of her late father.

Flowing blues and greens represent the healing energy of water and the strength found in both land and sea. The two dogs she shares life with and her partner are part of the story too — grounding her in love and togetherness.

A truly special gift for a milestone birthday, filled with meaning, memory and future journeys still to come.
