This striking pen and watercolour piece is a dynamic dance between movement and stillness, chaos and calm. Bright orange fish flow in rhythmic harmony across sweeping black ink waves, creating a visual tide of motion that feels both purposeful and playful. The minimalist white background emphasizes their vibrant energy, allowing the composition to breathe and ripple like water in motion.
The quote, “Happiness comes in waves,” beautifully anchors the narrative. It’s not a depiction of constant joy, but of moments — moments that surge, swell, and pass through us like a school of fish gliding with the current. The painting celebrates the natural rhythm of emotions, suggesting that joy doesn’t need to be chased; it flows through when we allow ourselves to be present in the movement.
