I painted this image last year and put the original on ebay to raise money for the anti-whale hunting charity . It was inspired by the actual signs Japanese whalers hold up while they’re being photographed poaching whales in the South Atlantic.

First piece for 2020! I finished the most complex painting I've ever done yesterday so I took a couple hours to chill with my fave lady, Eidy. Putting the learning from Craig Mullin's Schoolism class to practice! Shape design, not rendering.

It impressed us with its breathtaking fight animation scenes funded by the whalers. Can Fate/Grand Order win the 'Anime of the Year title?

Beware the jellyfish with no light. A bringer of dark tides, its light lost to an unfortunate soul who drowned and seeks to visit wrath upon those who left them to die at sea.

day 26. More underwater fun, with blooms of giant stinging jellyfish.

Day 5 and going strong. Trying more of the fine linework approach, still enjoying it a lot. More Spears, this time, Eideann's father Saul, who is one of the town's best whalers, but is often the Spear who takes the success of the hunt hardest.

The dangerous part of being a Spear.

Late entry for today. Trying something a little different, stylistically and I rather like it. Consistency, what? You've no idea how much I envy folks who find a style and love it enough to keep going with it.

I am on a cute kick at the moment it seems. doing her own chibi stuff made me want to try it myself. Cara - from my Whaler Girl project - felt like an ideal subject!
