Great acrylic on paper here Ray of a Beaver Dam. Those Beavers sure have been busy building this dam. Great colours and textures. Well done and thanks for sharing :-)

Comment from Kathy Banich


Ray, this is a very intriguing piece - the title leads the viewer to look for the visual representation of a Beaver Dam and as a result, I see the pile / layers of limbs and small logs. The burnt orange offers a nice vignette feel to the piece, framing the damn nicely.

Beavers are being introduced much more now in the uk and they are starting to make a difference,so i can see the way the beavers have been shown in the way they work lodge!!! but that aside an abstract version of this scene...Brian

Comment from Shadow catcher


This a great depiction of a beaver dam, I feel like I am looking at it from a higher vantage point, peeking through the weeds and sedges,hopefully using them as camouflage in case the beavers return to modify it. They've done a good job, as I can see the water backed up behind, reflecting the blue sky above. The greens and browns make this a very realistic nature scene!

    LeeAnn, I have seen many a beaver dam and lodge in my time. The idea of a beaver gnawing at trees, creating dams and building and living in lodges is amazing. From all my memories, I came up with this one. I am so glad you could enjoy this creation. Thank you for your wonderful review , rating and compliments, and Happy New Year. Ray

Being an admirer of wildlife and their ways, I thing this is a super abstract of a beaver dam and pond behind the structure.

The organe/blue complementary colors work well. I think the blue water adds the detail that makes this piece work well. Nice post.
And of course, Happy New Year
