10/6 Water Lover

 This is a favorite of mine, and any time I bring it along to an art fair or exhibit, people gravitate to it. I think it's because the otter is really looking at us, there's a sense of being seen by her, of the fact that she recognizes you are another living creature like her. I love that.

I also really love the water in this one.. the abstract quality, trying to let my control go over what I think water should look like, and letting it be as I see it. That's tough, actually. Anyone who's tried to paint a paper bag knows that!
