 The Wind in the Sails is an iconic work by Jolic, a Canadian painter known for her large-scale canvases inspired by the sea, wind and light.
 In this semi-abstract composition, a sailboat cuts through the waves, propelled by sails full of breath and poetry. The artist's instinctive gesture, cracked textures, and subtle gradations of white, beige, and sky blue give the painting a sense of suspended movement. The sea darkens in the foreground, contrasting with a milky sky pierced with pale gold. The whole evokes the freedom, momentum, and vibrant silence of setting sail.
