Whale tails are back...

This ethereal watercolor and soft pastel painting was my response to seeing blue whales a week ago. Blue whale flukes (tails) are more grayish in real life. Said species was given that common name because their bodies glow blue when they're just below the surface.

Owning this painting or a print of it while wearing a thong peeking out of the top of your low-rise jeans while driving a car with the cool whale plates that benefit the California Coastal Commission would be totally meta. Increase the Droste-ish Effect by buying the art and getting a design of it tattooed on your lower back. ;-)
