New Haven Baby Seal Original Watercolor Art by Bryan Etch - Chappy the Seal painting

New Haven Baby Seal - Chappy Original Watercolor Art Painted on a 5x7” sheet of watercolor paper

RIP Chappy :(

On 2/17/25, an adorable baby seal was found roaming the streets of New Haven. Local law enforcement was on hand to help secure the little guy and he was transported by professionals to Mystic Aquarium for rehabilitation. He’s a heartwarming little critter that everyone seems to love - and I love him too! So I painted this sweet little portrait of him ❤️ This original watercolor art sketched in pencil and micron pen. Cold press watercolor paper used along with Daniel Smith + Winsor Newton professional grade watercolor paints. The art is painted on a 5x7” piece of watercolor paper and will frame nicely in a matted 8x10" frame (5x7" matting) - Not included with purchase For personal display only Artist retains all rights to the art upon sale of prints or original artwork Please message if you have any questions regarding art or prints Artist Bio "Bryan Madden is a Professional Watercolor and Etch A Sketch Artist based out of Connecticut.
