Contact Details
If you wish to contact me to use this, please contact me at okuraorca (at) hotmail.com, so then I can arrange it to be send to you full sized.
You are more than welcome to share this about and print to use to help raise awareness.
EXTREMELY HUGE FILE if you are going full sized. This is set to an A1 poster sized resolution.
Here is my completed project.
Several weeks of research, drawing, art and so forth.
I am planning more, but this is the first one of my series.
I created this project as something big to be shared and printed for posters to be shared about. I always felt it was cruel and cold for SeaWorld to allow a whale to die and how they never seem to do anything to remind people of them. But all of them had horrible ways they died that people don't know about.
The empty spaces are for some logos and a Q-Code that will later be able to be scanned for more information.
Edit 1 (16Nov13): I have been working on a collaboration mini-site with Orca Aware to further promote the stories of these orcas. As of today, I've added a link to the mini-site as well as adding the Q-Code and Orca Aware logos. More will be added over time, but this is the first revision of the poster.
A few notes:
Corky's calves may have mostly been born outside of SeaWorld, but one miscarriage was at San Diego and Corky is still there. They are worthy of being part of this.
Morgan was captured from the wild and taken into captivity. Until she is released, she is still a wild capture, like it or not.
Important Notice
Before you comment, think twice.
I don't care if you are pro-captivity.
This is facts about the animals presented.
Arguing the point of pro-captivity is a pain and I do not care for it on my art. I have had threats and abuse slung at friends and family before and will not tolerate it here.
If you do not agree to this DO NOT COMMENT. It's that simple.
It's fine to have a discussion, but if you are simply going to bash and call it or me things, then keep it to yourself.
Finally, a great big thank you to James, who assisted with this, and everyone else who has assisted in anyway. You all know who you are and I thank you.
Logos of the supporters organisations belong to them and are used with permission.
