We Will Remember Them
We Will Remember Them is inspired by the song “We Will Remember Them,” performed by Military Wives Choirs.
Set at dawn, four young sailors stand together facing the sea, the Australian naval flag and the rising sun. Their backs are turned to the viewer, inviting us to stand with them in quiet reflection. The stillness of the scene honours the solemn promise of ANZAC Day — to remember those who served, those who sacrificed, and those who never returned home.
The sea represents distance, service, separation and return, while the poppies symbolise sacrifice, respect and remembrance. The morning light brings a sense of hope, continuity and legacy.
This painting also holds a personal connection, with my own son currently serving in the Navy. Through him, and through all young service personnel, I see the next generation carrying forward the stories, respect and responsibility of remembrance.
We Will Remember Them is a tribute to those who came before, those who serve now, and those who will continue to carry the promise forward.
