Panda Bears - Hand Painted Art Tile
$47.95There is nothing more lovable looking than the Giant Panda Bears. They live in very remote mountainous regions of Western China up in the Himalayas and very little is known about them. These plumpish, clumsy bears live almost entirely off of bamboo. They are an Endangered Species and there are only about 2500 of them left. In fact they are the representatives of all Endangered Species and are the symbol for the World Wildlife Fund.

Sea Turtle - Hand Painted Art Tile
$47.95On my fist visit to Hawaii I was snorkeling and came upon a green sea turtle skimming gracefully and fast over the sandy white bottom. I tried to swim fast and see if I could touch him but he was a better swimmer than me. I was so inspired that when I came home I created this Green Sea Turtle tile in memory of him.

Humpback Whale & Baby - Hand Painted Art Tile
$47.95Found in almost every ocean the Humpback whale migrates 16,000 miles each year from their Polar feeding grounds down to tropical waters where they breed and give birth. They feed only in Summer and fast all Winter long living off their fat reserves. The male produces a complex song lasting 10 – 20 minutes and is repeated for hours at a time. I have seen Humpbacks off the coast of Hawaii, Mexico and California. I am always so impressed by their sheer size and magnificence. Over-hunted their population fell by 90% until a 1966 moratorium was introduced. They are slowly coming back. My humpback has her calf swimming alongside her.

Japanese Sandhill Cranes - Hand Painted Art Tile
$47.95I was so enthralled watching a video of this elegant bird’s mating dance in the snow that I was inspired to create this crane design. Because the Sandhill cranes mate for life the Japanese consider them a symbol of eternal love and their wedding kimonos incorporate crane designs into their satin brocade silks. The Japanese character on the tile is the symbol for “love” so I like to give these as wedding or anniversary gifts. I found out Sandhill Cranes also live in the USA and I was able to visit a crane reserve in my area and see them up close and personal. These birds are typically 5 foot tall with a red forehead and black legs. When they migrate in the Fall you can hear their “trilling” sounds but can barely see them as they are flying @ 10,000 feet catching the “thermals” so they don’t have to flap their 5-8 foot wingspans very often. They are truly a magnificent bird.
