This original watercolor presents a yellowfin grouper through an expressive approach to realism rooted in memory rather than movement. Inspired by a fish speared at 50 feet while freediving in Key West, Florida, the painting reflects a singular moment experienced beneath the surface—quiet, focused, and personal.
The composition favors form, color, and presence over light or motion, allowing the subject to exist as a vivid recollection rather than a depiction of action. Created from lived experience and time spent in the water, this one-of-a-kind work speaks to a deep connection with the ocean and the act of spearfishing itself.
Painted on archival paper. 18 × 24. Signed original. Unframed.
