The Oceanographer's Wife is a beautifully crafted oil painting, set in the middle of the ocean.

A woman, calling her man back to her, the only way she knows how... her nakedness is her siren call, the way that she knows best to get his attention. With this siren song, she can call him home to her, no matter how far away he is, no matter how lost in the fog he is.

This painting speaks of how we need each other, to be our anchor, to be our home, to call us home when we are lost on our path in life.

This work also speaks of how, when we are naked with someone, when we are vulnerable / in love with someone, how we can willingly lose sight of land, of everything around us that is concrete.

How does this piece speak to you?
I hope that this work brings warmth and delight into your space and mind.

This painting comes to you signed, with a certificate of Authenticity.
