Description So sorry for not being active lately - yet again orz
and sorry for the quality, it's too big and heavy to scan and neither lighting nor camera are the best tbh
Well, this time I even have a proper excuse since it took me AGES to finish this painting!   
It's a gift for one of my best friends (she likes whales lmao)
I even wrote a little OS for it, but I'm not that comfortable sharing it. Maybe at some point in time.
I'm not very good at writing myself, but I like to think I'm a decent Beta   
So if anyone ever needs a beta, hit me up, I'm fluent in English and German //chokes

Sure thing! It's this watercolor artist that I follow:

Whales are a reoccurring theme in his work; I can understand why, They're a very graceful amazing creature.

Oh my god???? Thank you so much for sharing,
this artist is soooo amazing! //weeps in a corner
Yes, that's true, they really are stunning, aren't they?
My favourite is probably the orca though,
just because it looks like an under water panda (I'll see myself out)

R: you're welcome~ He's a very inspiring artist. I watch a lot of his videos. ^u^

LOL an under water panda... Such a cute analogy! Although I almost forgot that Orcas is the other name for Killer Whales. xD

I usually forget that they're called Killer Whales 
because that name doesn't really apply in German I think :T
At least I've never heard anyone use it before...?

R: ahh So you're from Germany? Nice to see people unite in drawing from all around the world! 
I guess the term "killer whales" gives a more... bad a$$ image. xDD

Yeah, I live in Germany, but I'm actually an immigrant I guess....?
Well, I mean, I was born and raised here, but my parents weren't 
so basically it's just technicalities I guess.

It does give a more badass image, but...they're not the only whales
that actually hunt, are they?

R: Oh that's interesting!
I think that would make you more of a native though, since you were born there... but I live in the States, so I'm not sure. My parents are from Asia, but since I was born here, I'm of American Nationality.

I think all whales hunt to a degree...? I believe that a lot of whales will eat hunt and eat squids.
