Innocent Partner
Title: Innocent Partner
Medium: Acrylic on stretched canvas
Size: 500mm x 600mm
2nd Prize winner in the Dunedin International Airport Art Awards
Original SOLD
This was a painting I recently finished. It was an art challenge held by the New Zealand Art Guild. Four things ha to be incorporated in an artwork, they were:
innocence, orange, umbrella and triangle.
Here is Little Red Riding Hood (the innocent) although she doesn’t look it here…with the Big Bad Wolf who has offered her shelter under his umbrella as it has started to snow again.
She is on her way to take some fruit (orange amongst them) to her elderly Grandma who lives in a cottage deep in the forest.
I wanted to interpret ‘triangle’ in the three character relationship i.e. Little Red Riding Hood, her Grandma and the Big Bad Wolf. Alternatively sections of the umbrella are triangular in shape.

Great work, Anni. Brilliant!
Anni Morris replied

Alexandra Felgate
Fantastic! Love the look on the wolf’s face. And I like your triangle concept too, works very well.
Anni Morris replied
Hi Alexandra, I sketched out a few wolf faces before this one and they ALL looked far too friendly. I decided it was the placement of the eyes…and making sure the eyes were not too large, whch resulted in a more cunning glare. Thank you ;) ~ Anni
louisegreen
Nice work Anni, clever creation.
Anni Morris replied
Hi Louise, I love wolf faces, especially those husky dogs…but tried to make him look a little sinister. Thank you ;) ~ Anni

Hi Anni. Extremly well done. I see triangles in the ears as well. You’ve certainly nicely portrayed this beautifully. Stay warm. Regards, Steve
Anni Morris replied
Hi Steve, thanks for your words :) Yes, it is getting chilly down here, the heatpump is going strong. There is some snow on the top of the surrounding hills brrrr…regards ~ Anni
fesseldreg
Yes, Ms. Hood does look rather knowing! Fabulous contrast between your beautifully coloured characters and the rest. Very fine work. Would make a marvelous alternative Xmas card! :)
Anni Morris replied
Yes fesseldreg, this little lady may lead a double life ;) It could make a Christmas card, hadn’t thought of that. Thank you for your comments and viewing this, much appreciated ~ Anni

Enivea
While I love the foreground, it’s the background of trees I find really appealing! I don’t understand why, just do…...:-))
Anni Morris replied
Hello Enivea, Perhaps it is the sense of mystery about what lies back in the forest? I think snow when it has recently laid holds a certain knd of magic about it. I know when I was a child and it had snowed overnight…the next morning early there was a different kind of light through the curtains, and a stillness which is quite beautiful and difficult to put into words. Thanks you for your words and viewing this :) ~ Anni
nancy salamouny
oh ANNI, I LOVE THIS ONE!!!!! The style, concept and execution are tops!!!! how did it do in the new zeaaland challenge?
Anni Morris replied
Hi Nancy, thank you. I don’t know the result of the challenge yet. I did enjoy thinking and painting this one. When I was a child my early drawings were all of animals dressed up in human clothes…doing human things. I haven’t painted anything like this for years, it made a pleasant change. ~ Anni :)
Angela Harelson
Anni, this is positively fantastic! Little Red has a very special place in my heart and I think the innocence comes out in her eyes. Love how the wolf has invited her to share the umbrella, what a wiley con. I also like the notion of the triangulation of characters, nicely done. The colors are marvelous, a treat to my eyes. :D
Anni Morris replied
Hi Angela, glad this one appeals to you :) I was thinking about the story when I painted this. I think she was called Little Red Cap originally. ~ Anni ;)
ElYPares
Clever take on this classic tale. Wonderful painting.
Anni Morris replied
Thanks EIYPares for your comment. It has been wintery here recently, snow up on the hills, so it is a seasonal painting for me :) ~ Anni
