Bathers captures a warm day at Merewether Ocean Baths, where people gather to swim, relax and soak up the sunshine. I was drawn to the layers within the scene - the still water of the baths in the foreground, the swimmers and sunbathers along the edge, and the ocean waves rolling in beyond.
For me, this painting is about the simple rituals of summer by the sea. It's a snapshot of a place that locals know well, where people of all ages come together to swim, unwind and enjoy the coastline that makes Newcastle feel like home.
