Artist's notes:

great white shark thumb The Great White was a 're-do' from an earlier drawing. The original was a bit too placid for the reputation of this incredible animal. I was lucky enough to see the Great White that was held in captivity very briefly at the Monterey Aquarium in 2005. Although it wasn't a full grown adult shark, it was still looked very formidable and spectacular. The drawing is based on a photo by Venson Kuchipudi.
