Description
Angel is an albino dolphin calf taken from her mother at "The Cove" in Taiji Japan. Angel represents thousands of dolphins who are hunted in Japan and either sold into slavery or slaughtered. Angel's family was no exception. She now swims alone, without her mother or family, in a small, cement pool at the Taiji Whaling Museum. My hope is that this painting will help raise awareness about the issue of dolphin slaughter and cetaceans in captivity. Please read more at "Ric O'Barry's Dolphin Project" and please watch the Oscar winning film "The Cove". All proceeds from the sale of this original painting and prints will go to Ric O'Barry's Dolphin Project. You may donate directly at: www.dolphinproject.net.

Art provides an opportunity for kaleidoscopic thinking. Each time we shift the lens of our perceptions, we gain new perspectives — and new opportunities for innovation.💖â£ï¸ðŸ’– CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR RECENT SALE OF A WONDERFUL WORK!

You are an exceptional and talented painter. You also have a special place in your heart for animals especially these poor dolphins. I don't understand why the Japanese can't leave them alone and the whales. I don't eat or go to any restaurant who serves any kind of this meat. These Dolphins are beautiful creatures made by God as well as the whales and are meant to live free in our oceans.
