When the Travellers Come Home

It is part of a new body of work that I am putting together inspired by boats and seascapes (both the coast of New South Wales, and my father’s seaside hometown of Allepey in India.) This piece is 12”x8” and has been made with acrylic, gouache, paper bits, cloth remnants, inks, distress inks, markers, and pastels.
