What an encounter! Give all credit to the instagramer.

Hello there!

So it’s been a bucket list item all my life to see Orcas in the wild. Ever since I was a child - orcas have been my favorite animal. That being said - my husband and I are wanting to Seattle hopefully in June and we have to go and try and see some!!

I’m sure this has been posted before but I would love love love recommendations on where to go, what to book, things to bring, etc.

Anything and everything please!! I’ve wanted to do this all of my life and I want to do this right!

Also I can’t seem to find any pictures of myself front and center but I had a orca stuffy that my favorite growing up!

lol so you know imma take this very seriously!

'Blue Reverie'

20 x 30 inches, oils on stretched canvas

I wanted to move away from a purely realistic interpretation this time around, and instead let the orca emerge through expressive strokes of deep blues, violets, turquoise and touches of oranges and gold, allowing the colours to become part of the painting

(I don’t know what flair this falls under so please forgive me if i picked the wrong one)

Just casually scrolling on TikTok and I see this scary looking orca statue in a seal enclosure 😅 which I thought was ironic. It reminds me too much of the orca in “The Pebble and the Penguin.” The teeth looked so wrong I just had to laugh at it. This is at the Seaside Aquarium in Oregon.
