Sake was born in 1988 and is an adult female California sea lion
who is world-renowned for her work in a variety of movies, television
shows and documentaries. She is, we believe, the best trained
sea lion in the world. Sake learned to paint in December of 2005,
and has created a variety of works of art since. Sake's paintings
are one-of-a-kind because they depict actual items and landscapes
(which most animal paintings do not). She was trained to paint
by following a target point around the canvas while holding a
paintbrush in her mouth. Her artwork showcases a true collaboration
between trainer and animal. She also signs each painting with
her signature red "S". Each of the paintings comes with
a photograph of Sake painting it as a certificate of authenticity,
and some of the artwork has already been framed. Below you will
see the paintings that Sake has created, which are available for
sale. The prices for Sake's paintings start at $400 and depend
on content, difficulty of creation, and customization. If you
see a painting that you like that is no longer available, we do
offer customized paintings as an option. To learn more about Sake
as an individual, please visit her webpage.
