Hi Orcasaurus,

From a friend I heard that there was an Autumnwatch clip about orcas in the North Sea. So on YouTube I searched for 'orca, northsea' and Bingo! Thanks after all for posting this inspirational clip.
Waves are much more diffecult to paint than the orca's and the sky. So I use other pictures as a reference and special brushes to get a real watereffect.

But you're paintings are also awesome! I like the rough paint effect in your underwater scenes!
