The Blue Whale

The Blue Whale by Jeff Soto Limited Edition of 50 (signed & numbered)  Fine art Giclée print on Italian cold-press watercolor paper 24" x 18" Printed by Paragon Press Artist Statement The Blue Whale is the largest creature the planet has ever seen but it's future is uncertain. Humans hunted this majestic animal to near extinction and now it is up to us to save it. Despite being such a great and powerful sea creature, it is very vulnerable. My painting plays with scale - the whale is mighty and huge in front of the mountain range, yet small and susceptible to the trident. The trident itself symbolizes the creativity and destruction of man. We caused the Blue Whale's peril but we can now act as its protector.
