Artist Reply: Helen, thanks for your kind comments. I enjoyed painting this, since I enjoy painting wildlife and landscapes. It was a bit of both in this.

This painting is a classical beauty. The blue haze in the background is so good!
Artist Reply: Thank you so much for your kind comments Anneke. I didn't really intend the blue to come out so hazy, it was a good accidental happening.
