In a Celebration of whales. One of my paintings, the Minke whale. Often found on the coast of Maine. These beautiful whales are gentle and curious. The medium is oil and on an old weathered board. Day 3

⚠️ 1/3 Today a deceased 8m adult Minke Whale washed up on Balmedie Beach.
Sadly it was heavily entangled in rope, it’s state of decomposition meant that a necropsy couldn’t be undertaken.

Iceland sets annual quotas for the fin whales and minke whales fishermen are allowed to hunt in its waters. It exports most of its whale meat to Japan.
The hunt is increasingly contentious in Iceland, where whale meat is now rarely eaten.
