Leaping Dolphins in a blue, azure wave painted in Acrylics on Ampersand Gessobord

Bottlenose Dolphins in Acrylics

'RIDING THE WAVES'
12" X 16"

The commissionee had purchased a couple of my works of art back in the early 2000's and requested a bespoke piece of art to be hung alongside other aquatic themed pictures he had on his wall. He allowed me to choose the composition and I spent some time creating the reference image for the painting you see here.

REFERENCE IMAGE

Dear Karen,
The dolphin painting is absolutely gorgeous!!! It is impossible to thank you enough!
It's astounding beauty makes the piece worthy of International Exposition.
You have talent beyond comprehension and I have been fortunate enough to see it firsthand on many occasions!
May Your Every Wish & Dream Come True!
With Greatest Admiration,

Framing

Although this was commissioned as unframed, the gent kindly sent photos of the painting once it had been placed in its new frame. He chose a natural, washed wood finish that complimented the colours in the subject. A great choice!
