Moby Dick

Description

Another book cover for my class... Everyone thought I was kidding when I put this on the wall. Then they talked about the butt. Which I didn't have a problem with, I'm quite fond of the butt.

You know that phase when you're half awake and you have these thoughts that seem totally reasonable and then you remember it later in the day and are like...why would making cabbage and vanilla souffle be a good idea again? That's when I thought of this.

Watercolor and white gouache.

<edit> Clarifying statement- my classmates / teacher didn't DISLIKE it, it just took a little time for them to warm up for it. It's definitely an odd one. </edit>

I approve.

I mean, I'm not anyone whose approval will mean very much of anything, I think, but I still approve. It's certainly a creative take on the whole Moby Dick idea and I love it. :D
