Whales

I live in Puget Sound, Washington. In the spring we often see migrating grey whales that come into Saratoga Passage to feed on the ghost shrimp. One morning when I was walking on the beach, there they were – and quite close to shore. I ran back up the hill to my home, grabbed my drawing materials and ran back down again. Luckily they were still there. I attuned to their presence and drew. It is intriguing to try to find form for non-human consciousness. I hope to do more of this kind of work in the future.
