Fishing in the Marlborough Sounds is a popular activity during the summer holidays.
Pack your lunch and drinkies and off we go and spend a day on the water. If you are lucky you'll catch some fish, blue cod, gurnard, snapper or even a king fish for dinner.
This year we were lucky and had a boat to get out and this painting is based on real events which makes it even more meaningful.
Sirpas technique is based on rich layers of color on textured canvas. The carefully selected under color for each tonality of light gives the paintings an air of depth.
