Catch & Release

This artwork is created using ink washes built up slowly in layers gradually defining the images of an aspect of sea life.
Sharing the knowledge; allowing participation, and showing the way.
In Catch & Release the next generation is guided in the ways and wherefores of fishing , enjoying and nurturing the environment.
Tenderness, support and understanding are qualities I hope to portray in this work painted in 2008. A nurtured environment gives a sustainable environment.
