Blue Whale Feeding Grounds
NFS
12" x 16"
Blue Whales travel from their feeding grounds in Antarctica to South West Africa twice a year. A baby blue whale weighs 3 ton and is up to 26 feet long (definitely the biggest baby in the world). They gain 200 pounds a day for the first year of their life.
This artwork, and subsequent ones, were prepared for a series called "African Sunsets".
