2026, Sand, Oils, and Pigments on handmade rough Hemp Canvas, 84x71cm
In Whale’s Song, the sand of Keurbooms Beach becomes a bridge between land and sea, anchoring the Southern Right Whale to the waters of Plettenberg Bay. This mixed-media piece captures the seasonal migration of these majestic creatures, whose presence ignites wonder among locals and visitors alike.
The tactile stripes and layered blue hues mirror the ocean’s rhythm—its ebb and flow, its depth and mystery. The raw texture of the sand and hemp canvas evokes the untamed beauty of nature, while the dynamic composition celebrates the wild, unyielding spirit of the sea.
This work is a tribute to the ocean’s voice: a song of movement, connection, and the enduring power of the natural world.
