Blue and Orange Fisherman Portrait

About This Artwork

This 40 x 40 cm acrylic portrait captures a seasoned fisherman from County Mayo, featuring piercing blue eyes and a textured orange oilskin coat. I used bold brushstrokes to carve out the deep lines of his face, and there’s a slight smudge near the edge where my hand brushed across too quickly. The light reflects off his coat, creating a warm glow that contrasts with the cool blues of the harbor behind him. Hand-painted original that tells a story of resilience. While painting this, I reflected on the lives of those who brave the sea. This piece would add a human touch to any coastal home or study, appealing to those who appreciate maritime heritage. Here if you need it.
