Pinkie and the Walrus. This item is unavailable.Pinkie and the Walrus

Who would imagine that a little Chihuahua, with a big attitude, would be able to change the life of a sad walrus? Only Pinkie knew that she could help Gus. She knew what ailed him. You see, Gus lived in the zoo and had an estate all to himself. He was a lonely walrus and he needed a friend. This story is about love and friendship. The theme is universal and shared by all creatures on this planet.

Art is a wonder in itself and we see it every day in life presented around us in the most glorious colors, moments, feelings, and expressions. Painting has been a passion of mine since I picked up a brush early in life. I graduated from the University of California at Davis and had the honor of taking classes from known artists Wayne Thiebaud, Roy De Forest, and sculptor Manuel Neri. My favorite mediums are acrylics and watercolor. For variety I add paper to the canvas to create texture. I enjoy painting on canvas or paper. My love for animals, the ocean, sailing and nature are the focus for the settings I paint. Painting is the visual interpretation and writing is the written picture. Both visual artists and writers paint, one with a brush and the other with words. I believe we have a common bond that holds both mediums together in a mix that is called creativity. It's in the sharing of our creative energies that we get the most rewards, so please feel free to view my website at www.maryborges.com to learn more about my paintings and books.
