Monkey Love

Ainsley's uncle commissioned a painting when we saw him over the summer. This is the final result.

His request was for a painting of a photo, depicting a monkey hugging a pigeon.

  1. I am absolutely pleased with the results of this commission: for me it captures the warm relationship between Monkey and Pigeon as shown in the subject photo (Google: monkey and pigeon photo).
    As Ainsley's G.Uncle, I found this commission as an opportunity to challenge (and hopefully encourage the further growth of) Ainsley's artistic talents.
    I was pleasantly surprised to find that Ainsley's monkey has posed for me a reciprocal challenge, in the form of a subtle question being asked in monkey's gaze which extends well beyond the painting directly to the viewer.
