Watercolor painting of sea lions on a submerged dock by Janet Tarjan Erl.

Harbor Hunks

Medium: Watercolor/gouache, Image Size: 16.75″w x 18.75″h, 2012.

I saw these massive, magnificent Sea Lions clustered along the docks at Newport, Oregon. They were so heavy and numerous they actually sank the docks a bit. It made for a unique painting with interesting shapes, textures, colors, and reflections. This watercolor was juried into the Coos Art Museum’s 19th Annual Maritime Exhibit, 2012; the Oregon Waterways Exhibit, 2012, Giustina Gallery, Corvallis, Oregon; and the Art of the Animal Kingdom, 2013, Bennington Center for the Arts, Bennington, VT.

Sea Lion Duo

Medium: Watercolor, Image Size: 7.5″h x7.5″w, 2015.

I saw these Sea Lions while hiking at Shore Acres State Park in southern Oregon near Coos Bay, Oregon. I was on a trail high on a bluff that overlooked the ocean, so the seals and sea lions felt safe from human intrusion, and they would haul out on the rocks to bask.
