What We Leave Behind

Original, framed, semi-abstract seascape painting by Carolyn J Roberts

The sea rolls in, the sea rolls out. Seaweed and shells mingle with the flotsam and jetsam scattered along the shingle. Footprints in the mud are soon submerged, washed away by the rising tide—physical traces of lives lived. But the landscape holds more than just the tangible; it carries memories on the water and in the air. The echo of laughter, the bark of a dog, the clink of anchor chains and rigging, moments spent wandering, playing, and exploring the shoreline. These memories linger, woven into the rhythm of the tides, while our history drifts gently, carried forever by the sea.

This mixed media artwork, in shades of blue, grey, and sepia, captures the expansive skies and the labyrinth of creeks and inlets, criss-crossed with tracks—evidence of both wildlife and human life; delicate details meet expressive washes, inviting you to wander through the landscape.
