The painting pictures a floating sky whale and a small child-like figure towards the foreground. It is created using watercolor and is given a loose and transparent feeling. Nature and destruction were some themes that I kept in mind when working on this piece. The red background is meant to represent fire and give an ominous feeling. It aligned with some of the events taking place at the time such as the wildfires. The whale, while non-threatening at first, becomes more foreboding as the scene is taken.
