extinction

billyboy, 7 months ago

Amazing piece Diana, and I share your love of seahorses, and your concern over their fate. Your imagery is very clever and sends a message… a very strong one in fact. I also love your processing style and the simplicity of the image. Well spoken with no words!

They are very wonderful creatures, I hadn’t realized they were an endangered species. it’s a very poignant piece. Well done Diana

I also love seahorses and find it difficult to believe (at times) that the Asian markets are such heavy consumers of them

I love the way you have depicted them in this piece and, I especially love the malevolent look of the eyes on the free one. The caged one shows its despair very clearly.

Your image speaks eloquently of their plight. Very well done.

I held a seahorse in my hands as the waves carried it to shore and pushed it back into the deep blue. Beauty!!!

Very thought provoking image.. wonderfully done too..

Colin Wells, 7 months ago

fantastic work

Anni Morris, 7 months ago

I couldn’t agree more with your comment Diana. The seas are being overfished, polluted and used as a dumping ground. Te seahorse is such a fine and delicate image…full of vunerability. I love those intricate bird cages too…but only as decorative decoration…not to keep birds in…I prefer them to fly wild…feel the air beneath their wings.

Zigga, 7 months ago

CJ Hummel, 6 months ago

A picture is worth a thousand words and your image speaks volumes.

Nira Dabush, 6 months ago

Me too always loved seahorses, Diana..somehow…perhaps because I got once 2 of them, many years ago…And..I made few artworks with them…

Nira Dabush, 6 months ago

This is SO BEAUTIFULLY Done…If they could talk, I wonder what they will tell…LOVE IT..!!

Lisa Weber, 6 months ago

very unique, beautifully rendered

Sidhegraphics, 6 months ago

Wonderful art and message!

John Arkleton, 6 months ago

A moving and imaginative piece of work. I often see seahorses down at the marina here so let’s hope that we’ll get our act together before they really are extinct. A ray of hope for the seahorse in the cage – I reckon it could squeeze through the top bars if it tried!

pattimus, 5 months ago

Amazing and brilliant, from an artisitic stand point and logic stand point. Always nice to see someone who actually gives a damn about animals and understands just what “extinction” means….

Very nice job

Jodie Carruthers, 5 months ago
