Description
The Llama by Amy E. Fraser is a painting of a handsome fluffy gray Llama with wise golden eyes gazing out at the viewer from within a beautiful South American landscape with a bright lemon yellow sun, pink sky and vibrantly colored wildflowers against a majestic mountain range in shades of red, magenta and purple. Llamas are so charming that they are now utilized as certified therapy animals in nursing homes and hospitals. Llama assisted therapy can reduce pain, depression, anxiety, and fatigue. The Llama is a delight to behold, overflowing with charm, intelligence and character and is part of Amy E. Fraser’s Menagerie collection of whimsical hand drawn and hand painted animal portraits.
A menagerie is traditionally a collection of captive animals, frequently exotic, kept for display; a precursor to the modern zoo or zoological garden. However, Amy’s Menagerie is one of the imagination only, all animals represented in this collection are wild and free. The “Menagerie” is basically a catchy title to encompass a rather large, eclectic series of full bodied, detailed, head to toe illustrations of magnificent real world animals displayed in colorful landscape settings with a fun, folksy, fairytale vibe presented in a horizontal format.
The Menagerie Painting Collection by Amy E. Fraser. The Menagerie works are one of a kind, original paintings created with care and dedication to traditional human craftsmanship. The Menagerie Series is inspired by Amy’s lifelong connection to animals and is an impassioned tribute to the beauty and magic of our beloved Animal Kingdom. Medium: Watercolor Pencil, Oil Pastel and Acrylic Paint on 140lb cold press acid free archival watercolor paper. All images copyright Amy E. Fraser. All rights reserved.
