The Old Man and the Sea

The Old Man and the Sea

An enduring gaze beneath a sunlit glare,
The old man’s wisdom paints the air.
His weathered hands, a story they tell,
Of battles with the ocean, where legends dwell.

This acrylic on canvas painting uses bold, vibrant colours and dynamic lines to emphasize the vitality and resilience of the central figure. The composition blends realism and abstraction, with expressive brushwork capturing the interplay of light and shadow. The layering of colour enhances texture, while the contrasting tones highlight the man’s perseverance against the backdrop of nautical elements.
