Lot No: 51 - Ref No: 041 Morris and Molly By Kathy Nettles ''I was delighted to be chosen to paint one of the otter statues and had so many ideas for how and what to paint them. I decided to keep them looking like real, but rather large, otters and 'dress them'. I kept being drawn back to the Dartmoor landscape and wanted them to incorporate the wonderful colours of the moors, the sky, and the rivers where they live. In my explorations I came across Dartmoor Border Morris Group and everything clicked into place. Their vibrant rag jackets of blues, greens, whites and browns represented the moors, the water and the sky and the flashes of orange and purples picked out the gorse and heathers that cover the moors at certain times of the year. The floral head piece painted on the young otter and the jaunty flower covered hat I attached to the large otter completed the image perfectly. Painting the faces, neck and chest of the otters in such a way that they look wet was the finishing touch and gives the impression of them just having emerged from their watery home.''

Lot No: 67 - Ref No: 060 My Otter Half By Alan Cotton & Phil Creek After the otters had been distributed to artists, the organisers found they were one short. Phil Creek and Alan Cotton, fellow artists and good friends, agreed to share the painting of an otter, which they thought would be fun. Alan remembered Tommy Cooper on stage walking from the wings dressed as a woman, then turning around to walk back revealing himself dressed as a man. As a tribute to him, Alan had the idea that as he and Phil were each doing half of the painting this would make a humorous theme. They spun a coin, Alan won and decided to paint the female side and Phil would portray the male. The female is complete with false eye lashes and earring in her colourful summer dress. Phil painted his side of the otter as an evacuee from the London area being comforted by a male military figure in a great coat. Is he his father saying goodbye, his new father figure in Devon or ...? The small otter is complete with gas mask, gas mask box and personal label as was usual, during the Second World War, when children travelled away from home. Alan and Phil called their sculpture. ''My Otter Half''
