Southern resident orcas, also known as the southern resident killer whales (SRKW), are an exclusively fish-eating ecotype of orcas that live in and around the Salish Sea. They differ genetically from transient orcas as well as having different dialects and diets. © Rachel Haight - Orca Network

I completely neglected to share this piece. Though making super detailed art of cetaceans is fun, I kinda want to start going for a more stylized approach as it would probably stand out more. This doesn’t mean detailed pieces will no longer be made, just that I want to do more experimenting with stylized work. Plus it’s more consistent with the type of art I do more often. For now, enjoy this Icelandic orca.

Any remaining figurines will be available in my shop after the convention

Makaio during the 3:30pm Orca Encounter on June 12th

As for favorite, I can't choose one I like more than the others. For Chimelong my favorites are Tyson, Sonya, Katenka, Katniss, and Bandhu. My favorites for SeaWorld San Diego are Corky ii, Keet, and lately Shouka and Ikaika have been growing on me :]
