'Oyster Farmer's Daughter ' by Naomi Crowther is a hauntingly beautiful artwork of an oyster farmer's daughter gazing out to sea with a French martini in hand, wondering what is beyond the shore. When she does find out, her upbringing will always remain magically within her, for the oysters are in her blood, her dress, her hair. They are part of her very being. Naomi's painterly brushstrokes convey a warm energy to this mesmerising piece. This art print onto canvas captures the earthiness of the pops of bare linen, from the original, adding to mix of the textures. The high quality printing makes the thick impasto paint look 3D, making the viewer want to come up close. Naomi Crowther's studio is on the Far South Coast of NSW, and she takes cues from local oyster farms as inspiration for this artwork.
‘Childhood weekends spent messing about along tidal waterways made me a true oyster lover. My brother and I would adventure for hours along the waterways, always with a knife and bush lemon in our pockets. When we felt hungry we'd open oysters straight off the rocks and use the lids to scoop them out. I'll always savour that creamy, fresh sea water taste.' - Naomi.
