This painting depicts an Orca as she should be, free in the abundance of her native waters. I was inspired to paint this as a tribute to an Orca lost away from her native home, the Pacific Northwest.
"Freedom’s Joy" is more than a tribute to a single Orca, it's a powerful indictment of the cruel and outdated practice of wildlife captivity. It serves as a stark reminder that concepts of ownership over wild animals inflict immeasurable pain and suffering upon the Earth and its creatures. This painting seeks to underscores the urgency that we must no longer tolerate the capture, sale, and display of sentient beings in unnatural, restrictive environments.
This artwork is a fervent call to action. Let the spirit of the painting ignite a movement to free all living beings held captive. We must not wait for illness and despair to claim more lives. The time for true freedom is now.
Materials: Paper. Mixed media with oils. Dimensions: W: 34 x H 26 inches.
