This is really a lovely watercolor painting, and I like a lot the over all blue tones. Neither the sea nor the sky need more details in a painting like this, but I am impressed by how well you managed to add the splashing of water effect, and also that you added shadows from the jumping Dolphins.
The Dolphins are painted with really good attention to details, and it is nice that you managed to get the illusion of their wet skin. Actually I think you have been very clever with the use of light all over, making this look so much like a jolly summer scene.
This is also a well composed painting where the Dolphins are placed well within the frame. It is really good use of space here and a good balance between negative and positive space. This is all together a really lovely watercolor painting, and really well crafted.

Oh this is very impressive - the detail is such that from the thumbnail it looks like a photograph. The dolphins look playful and the composition is great, all adding to the enjoyment of this wonderful watercolour.

Comment from Jean A Cormier
Oh, I think you put just the right amount of detail in the water-just a lovely piece, so true to the shape and form of tis wonderful creatures. Once can see their playfulness here! I love to see them follow the boats in Florida, sometimes we are fortunate enough to see them in the gulf. Lovely composition and color palette! Jean

You did a fantastic job making the dolphins appear glistening wet with your placement of highlights. Your shadows on the water are just right to show us how high they are jumping. I love the purples and blues here. Kudos. cainse

A lovely picture of toning blues and greys which perfectly depicts the joyful leaping of the dolphins. You have really captured their line and shape. Great highlighting of the head and water spray. A really happy image.

Very exciting composition and lively looking porpoises. Nice lose style and they seem to have a joyful character about them. Great highlights, shadows and splashing. Good entry

Masterfully done. You've captured their playfulness perfectly. What talent. Your choice of not putting much detail in the water or the sky is a good one. The dolphins stand out nicely. Excellent job.
