Signed "Orcas in the PNW" Watercolor Painting 8x10" (Unframed)

Orcas in the PNW is an original, one-of-a-kind watercolor painting inspired by the incredible orcas who call the Pacific Northwest coastline home.

I've been fascinated by whales and dolphins since childhood, and this piece was born from a simple, joyful idea: imagining orcas moving freely through the ocean, playing, exploring, and existing exactly as they were meant to. I wanted to capture the feeling of these magnificent animals rather than simply recreate their appearance.

Watercolor felt like the perfect medium to bring this vision to life. Its unpredictable nature allowed me to embrace movement and spontaneity—letting colors flow, blend, and create their own rhythm, much like the ocean itself. Through that process, this abstract interpretation of orcas emerged naturally, capturing their energy, grace, and connection to the sea.

The result is a fluid and expressive piece that celebrates the wonder of the natural world. Orcas in the PNW invites a feeling of calm, curiosity, and connection—a reminder of the beauty that exists just beyond our shores.

Perfect for ocean lovers, marine life enthusiasts, and anyone who feels inspired by the wild places and creatures that make the Pacific Northwest so special.
