I think seahorses are fascinating and beautiful. One is purple and the other is lavender. Seahorses come from the genus "Hippocampus," which derives from ancient Greek; "hippos" meaning horse and "kampos" meaning "sea monster." Seahorses aren't very strong swimmers, they like to hold onto things with their prehensile tails, so I've given them some seaweed to hold onto. The art has a soft realist feel.
The original painting is an 8"x10" acrylic painting on canvas.
