This is a recent, large oil (41" x 44") of humpback whales in the Gerlache Strait, Antarctica. It is late evening and the last of the sun is striking an ice berg and illuminating the 'blows' of the humpbacks in yellow/orange light. This was our last evening in Antarctica and was certainly a memorable one. Whales are large animals but these were utterly dwarfed by the majesty of the scenery, a sense of scale that I tried to convey in this picture. SOLD.
