"John Coe" Orca Limited Edition Art Print
"John Coe - The Lost Orca of the Hebrides" is a limited edition art print showing the iconic orca 'John Coe'. He and a younger bull 'Aquarius' are the last two of the functionally extinct ecotype of orca known as the west coast community in Scotland. With just two males remaining there is no hope for this unique pod which roam the Western Isles. Hidden within the body is a map of the Hebrides alongside other iconic species found in the diverse and special environment of the Sea of the Hebrides. I wanted to reflect not only the ecological significance but also the emotional connection between these animals and the local islands and to share their heart-breaking story.
This piece was shortlisted for the Wildlife 100 Artist of the Year Award by Explorers Against Extinction in the International Sketch For Survival Competition. Placing in the top 15 out of over 3000 entries.
This is a professionally printed Giclée print on Hahnemühle German etching fine art paper. A textured paper which emulates the look and feel of an original art work.
This is a limited edition print with only 50 being made in each size.
