Nice composition, like the colors and the pose on the whale. I am thinking; I am missing the eye on him, and the way the light reflections, based on the rays coming from above, and around him, that would play on his back other then those two items to me a nicely composed scene.

The seascape is very nice and I like the small star fish. The water is very inviting and a perfect coloring. Your light source is the sun and it looks like the rays are passing through the Orca. We should be looking at the shaded side of the fish. Nice scene!

Original image of a whale not the usual breaching the surface nature study.The light rays from the surface are especially well rendered and the curved shape of the body adds great interest.Great work.

What a beautiful piece! It gives the real feel of water, has columns that bring a underwater culture to mind and provides a beautiful restful sense of a different habitat. Great painting!

This looks like 3D to me. You did a terrific job with the depth perception, the light and creation of shadows. Terrific work.

A highly appealing artwork where composition, skill in accurate drawing&painting together with close to real color scheme come together.Occuring vegetation,fish & reflection naturalise the scene. Very well done.

Super subject to paint. The remains of Atlantis are portrayed very well in the background while the killer whale enjoys a swim with the sun's rays shining down. The small purple fish and the greenery are very well done. Nice color scheme. Well presented with good impact. Thanks for sharing.
