Description
This lovely piece of art speaks for itself. It is one of Wyland's classic compositions. We love it, but no longer have space to do it justice. We hope that someone who appreciates his work as much as we do will see this listing and take this beautiful picture into their home or office.This is a Wyland Limited Edition artwork. It is 5/295. We purchased this in the Wyland Galleries, 855 West Harbor Drive, San Diego, CA on October 11, 2002. We have all the paperwork - receipt and Certificate of Authenticity. It will be shipped in the original box that we received it in. It is double framed with a shadowbox effect in beautiful, Hawai'ian Koa wood and a dark blue mat in between frames and Plexiglas. The paperwork includes care instructions for both the frame and the Plexiglas. Including the frame, it is 42 inches high and 36 inches wide. THIS IS A NON-SMOKING HOUSE and always has been, so there will be no problems in that regard. The painting has hung in our living room away from sunlight.

The original painting signature and date (1983) appear as well as the original signature on the limited edition print. Here is a quote by Wyland on this piece of art: "In this painting (Children of the Sea,) I tried to capture the warm intimacy that exists between Pacific bottlenose dolphins, as well as the fantastic ocean environment in which they live. This is one of my early works, and I’d have to say it’s probably my favorite. I sold it in 1983 at the Sawdust Festival in Laguna, then bought it back in 1990 for my own collection. Children of the Sea to me is important in its meaning, and I feel it captures forever the spirit of our ocean friends. Once I bought the painting back, I dropped everything I was doing and set aside time to sculpt it in bronze. I had always seen the painting three-dimensional, and when I actually began to translate it into sculpture, the impact was tremendous! When people ask me how long it took to finish the sculpture, I say it took me seven years and five weeks — seven years to think about it and five weeks to physically create the piece. The result was very satisfying, though, and this painting inspired me to begin sculpting many of my earlier works." *Cibachrome images are exposed directly from digital files, slides or transparencies, eliminating the need for time-consuming, costly and resolution-robbing inter-negatives. Cibachrome gives you maximum, first-generation sharpness from your original slide or transparency. Cibachrome materials have tough durable bases. The artist can paint highlights directly onto it to give it a more textured appearance. Each piece is made unique by hand and therefore, becomes individual. Thank you for visiting our site.
