I've had a number of people tell me that although my previous version entitled "Moby" was clever in it's reference to the "Jaws" poster, that they preferred it without the font. I like to give my customers options so here is a version sans font with a revised colour palette and narrower format, hope people still dig it!

Lisa Argyropoulos commented on March 20, 2012 9:31am

It's wonderful this way as well, Terry! I think in this version, it gives the viewer a way to imagine a different story line too! =)

Angelo Cerantola commented on March 20, 2012 9:35am

I agree with Lisa! I prefer this version myself.

Terry Fan commented on March 20, 2012 9:37am

Thanks Lisa and Angelo. I like both versions, but this is a nice option for an art print because the focus is on the whale without the distraction of the font which really stands out, especially because of the red colour.

the bubbles r just great it really creates a sense that the whale is coming from the bottom to get the boat, lovely!! x

Someone on Etsy is selling your artwork on iPhone cases. Thought you'd want to know.

Terry Fan commented on January 10, 2013 12:49am

Thanks a ton, everyone! :)

Jackie - thanks for the link, I've contacted the store owner and have also reported him to Etsy. He's ripping off a bunch of other Society6 artists as well.
