Net of Life

Five figures stand knee-deep in shimmering water, nets cast wide, baskets balanced high—each face turned away, each step deliberate. Their clothes blaze with colour—teal, crimson, mustard—against a sky of pale grey and silver. This is not just fishing—it’s ritual, rhythm, survival. The artist captures the moment between effort and reward, between sea and shore, between labour and legacy. Brushstrokes crash like waves, mirroring the energy of the tide. It’s a painting of community, of shared purpose, of lives woven together like the nets they hold. A tribute to those who draw sustenance from the deep—and return with stories in their eyes.
