In this beguiling artwork, a magnificent Sealion commands the scene. She’s gracefully navigating through an enchanting forest, illuminated by the soft glow of moonlight. As she glides towards us, her gaze fixates upon a tantalising balloon. Its ribbon has ensnared on a branch, beckoning to join her burgeoning collection. Yet, in her pursuit, she remains oblivious to the solitary balloon slipping away into the obscurity above – ‘The One That Got Away.’

Immerse yourself within the world of  The One That Got Away.

Despite her efforts, the Sealion will find herself no richer in balloons than when she began her quest. It’s a poignant reminder of life’s transient nature and the inevitability of letting go… Even as we strive to grasp onto fleeting treasures. In the bustling cacophony of existence, we’re often burdened with the weight of possessions, relationships, and aspirations. And yet… We must accept that we can’t hold onto everything.

The One That Got Away will add a stunning accent to your space.

Life’s journey propels us forward, leaving behind the balloons we’ve relinquished along the way. Each one symbolises a moment, a memory, or a dream we’ve released into the ether, enriching our path with experiences that shape our narrative. This beguiling artwork urges us to embrace the present, cherish what we hold dear, and acknowledge that letting go is an inherent part of the journey towards growth and self-discovery.

The One That Got Away will add a stunning accent to your space.

Throughout my journey as an artist, I’ve tried various surfaces & colours… From acrylics on boxed canvas to the refined oils on board I now employ. Each combination wields a distinct influence over the final outcome. Canvas imbues a rustic charm, its weave adding texture. For intricate details, only oil on board suffices, offering subtle nuances and unmatched ability to blend.

Yet, my attention extends beyond the artwork itself; the frames for Original Artworks hold equal significance. Through experience, I’ve learnt how a well-selected frame can elevate a piece, sometimes even reshaping its interpretation. Every choice, from canvas to frame, is a deliberate step towards crafting not just art, but an experience.
