Fishing on The Towy by Dorothy Morris

This body of work illustrate the ancient technique of seine net fishing here on the river Towy. These paintings are of the last three remaining licensed fishing boats still operating on the estuary here in Ferryside.
I have through these paintings recorded this method of fishing and this work has been exhibited in The National Waterfront Museum in Swansea.
I am constantly inspired by life on this estuary and most of my works deal with this subject matter. However I have a degree in Textiles, years of teaching experience and an M.A. in fine art, therefor I am constantly experimenting with materials and enjoy exploring new ones.
However this portfolio deals primarily with 'Life on the Estuary including Seine Net Fishing.
