extinction

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.

Thank you very much for your kind words :-)

I love this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It really is amazing. Beautiful scene

Oh my, how wonderful, magical… :)

Congrats on your image being featured! Well Done!

Great work!

Evocative art!

Oh, a very nice image! That’s right, exclamation point!

Gorgeous Diana

Lovely piece of art!

aww so sad, but beautiful

Superb work!!

aw .. this is so sad … and completely adorable. i love it. the colour is wonderful! :)

inspired piece of art. :o)

Beautiful work Diana

this is wonderful, visually beautiful yet so sad.

Seahorses are my favourite little animal. This is so beautiful … so sad … so true … thank you :) x

beautifully sad

Wonderfully evocative , and a strong message, gently done.

Wonderful message and image, Diana Thanks

Awesome work

Beautiful image! I feel the same way about human-induced extinction.

excellent

This is a fantastic concept, well executed.

great work I see your view.

Very poignant piece. Love it, love the bubbles. Well done.

This is not only a good shot but is also very well thought out

Wonderful image
Description is sad but true.

interesting

So artistic! the blue color really expresses the sadness in this, the little bubbles are the perfect touch too, fabulous!

Beautiful work. Wonderful vision. Love your portfolio!

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

It’s true humans r so destructive, this is a beautiful peice of work so sweet!

Very thought provoking image.. wonderfully done too..

fantastic work

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.

Such a powerful image & so sad but so true. A really beautifully constructed piece of work!

gorgeous image – love your words too.

Fabulous work – I love the backgrounds that you use!

I agree entirely with your sentiments. This is a wonderful work

Amazing piece of work!

Absolute perfection!

Wow! This is absolutely wonderful

this is so beautiful….the color,the texture,the feel….everything!
and I couldn’t agree more with you on the tragedy of humans
destroying everything….so sad,yet so true.
gorgeous work! ;)

This is another Brilliant piece….... And a very Powerful message, Outstanding!!!

It seems that when it comes to supidity, we humans do our best. I love the concept and the colour – not to mention the message.

amazing work

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

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…

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

very unique, beautifully rendered

Wonderful art and message!

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!

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

Beautiful

Fantastic image. Great work

aww.. very sad piece.. i love the way you used seahorses and place 1 in the cage.. very interesting.. very bittersweet.. n_n”

Hi Diana. I love this picture, I am fascinated by seahorses. Well Done

This is something you dont see everyday. It’s so unique and eye catching. I really like this.

Brilliant and original work of art.

Absolutely beautiful!

wondrous creatures, beautiful artwork..

This is so beautiful! Seahorses are amazing.
I love the color and the balance of this piece.

Lovely piece of work.

cute!

sad, but one of the best i’ve seen

Awwww. What a sad but beautiful image, a thoughtful piece, I love it

Awesome

so interesting

Beautiful work! I love the colours and the composition. I hear you about the sea horses, they are so wonderful.

This is a great concept, and you have executed it so well, I really love this

You are so right …...alot of stupid humans indeed !!! This is a very beautiful piece…......
Love your description….....

lovely piece….

Art with capital A

lovely and great concept

fabulous !

naww. It makes me sad to see them selling dried seahorses in herbal shops as a remedy. I doubt they work.

Hi Diana – I loved this on DA and still love it here. Such a powerful image

Neal

Did you know that seahorses are monogamous? If you kill one the other will never mate again!
So if you kill just one a whole genetic line dies out!

Lovely piece of work!
Feel free to check out our work and tell us what you think!

I’m glad you said it first, it made me sad too, for all the same reasons you give. Still, a gorgeous painting!

This is an original and wonderful work. That it has a message too I think is what great art is all about. Fantastic and sorrowful jointly. Thankyou!

I also did not know that they were endangered. Very strong message through imagery…

I just made an account today… and have been browsing through and admiring all of this amazing art. I just needed to add that your’s was the first to touch and amaze me enough to leave a comment! Absolutely Amazing!

I found your incredible creation while browsing Art in RB and am really touched by your beautiful work. One of the major environmental groups should use your art. Magical and sad at the same time!

Simply put this is just wonderful and poignantly expressed! These are my favourite creatures and we need to make everyone aware of their plight! Thank you Diana for sharing this wonderful work with us all!S

cute….....it reminds me of one I did a while ago called ‘Blackbird’.

greetings

Nuh Sarche

fantastic emotive piece.

It is so beautiful! I love your words, the lovely textures and colours and the wonderful symbolism in this beautiful work of art.

Thank you very much for your kind and encouraging words Sharon! I am really happy you like it :-)

It is so profoundly beautiful and heartbreaking. This is a powerful statement.

Let us open the door and set her free. I love the blue textures and wonderful concept.

They are caged just in Time.
But they are free.

I love seahorses as well…and prefer animals to most people. Animals know how to live in harmony with their environment…but we’re supposed to be the evolved species! Humans don’t deserve this place.

Oh, god – I just ADORE this.
