Always a Smile

Whyyyy didn't I remember to post this before? It's only a 2 feet by 4 feet acrlyic on canvas that's been greeting me every time I walk through the door. Hardly noticeable.

Seriously though, this fella is painted from a picture I took while on a field trip to a nice little place called Dolphins Plus in Key Largo. It was such a nice photo, even though it was a bit drab because it was overcast when I took it. So I livened the idea up a bit and made the colors punch, and painted it [close to] life size. Every time I see it, I can't help but smile; dolphins just have that effect, that calming sense of optimistic understanding. Hope I captured that feeling here.

EDIT: Took away the noise my camera left behind... stupid thing,
