An acrylic painting of two Canadian geese floating on the water, feeling safe and at home.
I wanted to get that feeling into the painting…..the geese being in their element and feeling at home in the tranquility of the water; even the sky touching the water and the reflections in the water are like one and emphasize to that feeling, in my view.

    Incredible painting…...I was in awe watching you create this wonderful piece of art….the light, the warmth of the sun and the water reflections and sense of peace is just amazing. I adore the colours in this and the little white feathers on the back of the goose are so adorable and soft looking and touchable. This is another beauty. I am so proud of you hon…..this is heavenly.

    Canadian geese have always been a favorite of mine. I’ve included them in a couple of my works as well. This is a beautifully done version. The details on the geese are wonderful. Well done Arie.
