Beth Bale "Two Giraffes" 12-11-12

 "Two Giraffes"
Beth Bale
Watercolor on Yupo, 16" x 20" framed
$95

          When Beth brought in this new painting, I asked it if was painted from the trip she made to the North Carolina Zoo a week earlier.  She said it was!  Beth described how the male giraffe was pursuing, wooing, the female.  He kept following her around and nudging her neck.  It seemed that she either had something else on her mind or was playing hard to get.  This painting is so vibrant and full of life, seemingly a perfect cross between the jump-off-the-page realistic painting that Beth does and her more impressionistic playful work.            ~Mariah Wheeler
