Curiosity -3 D Bunny & Mouse Wall Art - Curiosity

This delightful pair stumbled across each other in innocence and inquisitiveness. I painted this wall hanging to bring to life the most unlikely pair showing their curiosity and playfulness.

This wall hanging measures 8 ½ x 10 ½ and weighs 15 ounces. It is painted with a fall motif with the mouse painted on river rock and attached to the wood background. As the mouse scurries through the leaves he meets a curious friend. I hope I have artfully brought this scene to life and you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed painting it.

This would make a wonderful gift for animal lovers and unique collectible for an enthusiast of animal paintings.

Below is a Totem meaning for each critter.

Rabbit

The Rabbit is known for its ability to procreate, its fleetness, and its movement is by leaps. People with this totem may find that their endeavors go in leaps and bounds also.

If a Rabbit totem has appeared in your life, it may indicate a need for more planning or to check those plans already set in motion. Do not box yourself in a corner.

Mouse

If a Mouse totem has recently entered your life, ask yourself if you have neglected the trivial but necessary things in life. Have you become too focused on one or two activities and neglecting opportunities around you? Or are you trying to do too many things at the same time?

The Mouse totem can show you how to focus and how to attain the big things by working on the little things.

Innocence-3 D Fawn Wall Art

This lovely 3 D wall art reflects the innocence of a fawn in the woods, surrounded by flowers and greenery. He hides to protect himself while still close to his mother.

This art measures 8 ½ x 11 ½ and weighs approximately 16.2 ounces. You will note in the bottom left hand corner and top right corner there are butterflies painted on river rock. The combination of wood and rock in this picture adorns the deer giving it a realistic background with a 3 dimensional experience.

In painting these 3 dimensional art pieces I want the picture to jump out at you as if you were really there enjoying the beauty and surroundings of this little critter. The aroma of the flowers, and the soft flutter of the butterflies encircling the magic of the forest and the true beauty of nature.

I hope I have captured his delicate innocence for you. Please enjoy this piece as much as I enjoyed painting it. Below is a little information regarding deer fawns and their personalities.

Fawn-Deer

Fawns are young deer with spots that will eventually be replaced by a warm grey winter coat. They can walk within a very short time of their birth. The mother leaves the fawn in a safe place usually within hearing distance not necessarily sight distance.

The Fawn Deer is a keen observer, can see well in low lighting and its sensitive hearing allows it to perceive a twig snap in the distance.

They are graceful, majestic and gentle in nature which truly reflects their innocence.

A Deer totem teaches us to maintain our innocence and gentleness so we can share our openheartedness with others.

I thought I would share this quote with you.

Drawing is the art of being able to leave an accurate record
Of the experience of what one isn’t, of what one doesn’t know.
A great drawer is either confirming beautifully what is
Commonplace or probing authoritatively the unknown.

3 D Parrot Wall Art

This Wall Art depicts a parrot in the Tropics. I thought this would be a good background for this river rock. It brought the bird to life in his native environment.

This Art piece is in a rustic frame that measures 10 x 9 ½. The Parrot is a good size river rock that weighs 2 lbs. 2.9 ozs. He is attached to the background and can be put in any part of your home. He has been acrylic sprayed for longevity and would truly make an eye catching conversation piece. I hope you enjoy this piece as I did in creating it.

Parrots in the Tropics

Parrots are a very popular group of birds. Their colorful patterns and cute mannerisms, including picking things up with their feet and climbing with their bills, endears them to us all.

Most parrots are forest birds living in small groups or as individual pairs or families. Species that live in open grassland, however, tend to aggregate in larger flocks.

Most parrots are monogamous, form strong pair bonds which in some cases last for life which can be a considerable number of years, especially in larger species. The age record for a bird is held by a Cockatoo, with an officially accepted age of at least 82 years.

Parrots are most striking for their range of brilliant colors, which includes shades of green, red, pink, yellow, blue, purple, black and white. In some parrot species, male and female birds have the same coloring.

Parrots eat a variety of seeds, flowers, leaves, insects, grubs, native fruits and berries. Many parrots have also developed an appetite for wheat, sunflower seeds, corn and other crops.

Because seeds make up a large part of their diet, a parrot's beak has to be tough enough to crack open shells. It is also used to hold onto branches when climbing. The beak grows continually, and by chewing on hard material such as seeds and branches, a parrot can keep the size of its beak under control while keeping the cutting edge sharp.

3 D Indian Maiden & Wolves Wall Art

This Indian Maiden with wolves is another Wall Art creation of the RiverRock Critters.

It is in a rustic frame that measures 10 x 8, the rock wolf weighs 1 lb. 7 ozs., and is beautifully accented with the background painting. This item is given a 3D effect because of the one wolf being painted on river rock and attached to the background.

I truly enjoy incorporating natural wood with rock and painting a background that compliments the rock. It seems to give it a life of its own.

I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I enjoyed painting it and creating a Native American theme.


Wild Woman

Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species. Though the gifts of the wildish nature come to us at birth, society's attempt to "civilize" us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure, and muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. Without Wild Woman, we become over-domesticated, fearful, uncreative, trapped."

Psychic Energy

This Friendly Wolf energy comes from the psychic. It is the psychic part of the Woman that knows how to shift her love, her intention, and her nurturing abilities into the form of the Wolf. Thus she comes to the village, in the form of the She Wolf or Wild Woman, to protect the children and the old ones in need.

The wolf was respected for its hunting skills, endurance, and stoicism. A wolf's devotion to family and pack, providing food for all, paralleled that of the Native American to the tribe.

Maiden and Wolf

Off into the woods they run...him now on all fours

Can she never ask the Great Spirit for her brave again

The wolves have made her journey so rich and memorable

They have a bond so strong it can never be broken

They have journeyed many mountains side by side

Many tales have been told... Will there be any more to tell
