First Sight I

2023 | Oil On Canvas, Unframed

In this lifelike artwork, we witness a woman immersed in the ocean up to her waist, engaged in the act of fishing. It symbolizes the inherent risks we willingly undertake to pursue our desires and fulfill our wishes. The painting captures the bravery and determination required to venture into uncertain waters, both metaphorically and literally. The woman's stance reflects her commitment to taking chances and embracing the unknown to achieve her goals. Through this powerful image, the artist emphasizes the notion that fulfilling our deepest desires often demands stepping out of our comfort zones and facing the unpredictable challenges that lie ahead.
