A cute and fun piece to do – loved watching this little guy develop before my eyes.
Hi Ruth, thanks ~ unfortunately this wasn’t the painting they selected. I’ll be posting the one that got into the auction shortly. But I love your comment – I only wish.
I cannot remotely imagine being able to paint something with such expression. Applause and thank you for sharing with us.
You are very kind Judy , thank you so much. It was a neat challenge to try and capture .
So lively, Mary! The details like a beautiful close up image.
Thanks so much Amy- I really appreciate it.
Thank so much Jill – I always appreciate it. I’m so glad you liked the Seal – a refreshing change in subjects.
I’m smiling here in Texas, Derrick. Thanks so much – looking forward to seeing how your gardens have fared as we move into the Fall months.
This painting tugs at my heart strings; so adorable. It’s also lovely that you feel confident to paint something a little different from your usual subjects.
It’s good to see you Gallivanta – thank you, I enjoyed reading your response to the painting. Seals are pretty cool sea creatures – I don’t know if I’m drawn more to their faces of their eyes.
Nice painting, I like the cool blue colours, also the seal looks so rounded.
Hi Shawn, thanks very much for your read on the painting – appreciate your feedback on the specifics.
Hi marion , thank you – it means a lot. Their eyes are soulful.
Oh Mary this seal pup is adorable.
Hi Susan, thanks so much – I love your reaction to the painting. When we first moved to Maine , we lived by the ocean and I remember there were seals always playing in the water slapping their fins. Seals are a gift from the sea.
Ohh, your special words that open this post are outdone only by the emotion I feel looking at your painting. This may not be your usual genre, but I would love to see more animals. Mary, you capture heart and soul, within a very well executed work of art!
Wow and thank you Resa for reading the post just as I intended and for your special comment. You know how to make my day all the more brighter. It was a good exercise to challenge myself with. There is another painting of this nature coming up in the next few days – stay tuned.
Thank you Nico for your kind words, they are always appreciated. Hope all is well at home and your lovely wife is continuing to heal.
Thank you, yes she is. Blessings!
Glad you liked her Dorann! Thank you so much my friend. Hope you are well and didn’t suffer any damage with Florence and the tremendous amounts of rain that came your way.
All’s well here Mary…and thanks for asking.
I have fallen in love with her! She is in my heart forever. Thank you, Mary.
Oh my Patricia, what a beautiful thing to write ~ so glad you enjoyed this painting. Loved your response. Hope you are well.
Thank you Rose Elaine for your nice comment – always appreciated!
Mary, that seal pup is so adorable and natural! I love this painting!
Thank you so much Hien for your nice reaction to the painting ~ she was very cute to work on. I really appreciate it.
