Framed original oil on canvas 43cm x 33cm. Ready to hang in a handmade float frame of Tasmanian oak timber. Tasmanian oak comes from sustainable and environmentally responsible sources and is FSC and PEFC certified.
On a hot December morning I went to the Newcastle Ocean Baths, not for a swim unfortunately but to do some sketches for an upcoming commission.
Even on the coast there was no breeze and no swell, the ocean had a flat oily sheen to it. The baths had been cleaned the day before and you might say conditions were perfect.
This painting was inspired by that brief visit, a lone swimmer captured mid stroke and the lifeguard and a friend deep in conversation, the whole scene bathed in the beautiful morning light.
On display for the month of February at Estabar Cafe 61 Shortland Esplanade Newcastle. Open daily 6.30am - 2pm.
Price includes standard shipping and transit insurance within Australia.
Local pick up or drop off is also available.
