Whale sharks are such amazing creatures! The largest known fish in the sea, they can grow to 14 meters or more! Whale sharks live in warm tropical waters in the open ocean and (luckily for us!) prefer a diet of plankton and small krill. They have 3,000 teeth that are only 6mm long. The beautiful patterns of spots on the whale shark's back are unique to each fish, and can be used by scientists to identify and track individuals, like a fingerprint.
Because they are very docile creatures, diving with whale sharks is a very popular activity. They have even been known to allow divers to 'hitch a ride!'
Our whale sharks are completed with sponge applied acrylic or layered watercolour paint and soft pastel. We've imagined what it would be like to swim with the whale sharks, and have drawn ourselves diving with the whale sharks to put the sheer size of the fish into perspective!
