A stunning painting capturing the essence of a coastal scene. The luminous turquoise and blue brushstrokes in the painting give the impression of the movement of the waves around the rugged rocks that surround the lone fisherman. The composition of the painting with no sky and only ocean and rocks adds to the sense of solitude and the isolation of the fisherman.

The location of Cape Leeuwin, where the Great South Ocean meets the Indian Ocean, adds to the sense of drama and beauty of the painting. The fact that the artwork continues around the edges of the painting suggests that it is meant to be displayed without a frame, enhancing the immersive experience of the painting.

The inclusion of D-rings and cord secured to the back of the painting make it easy to hang on the wall. The signed Certificate of Authenticity adds value to the artwork, confirming that it is an original work by the artist Meredith Howse.

Fishing at Leeuwin Western Australia is a beautiful and evocative painting that captures the rugged beauty and isolation of the Western Australian coastline.
