• Learn relevant anatomy for artists and field sketchers to help you draw whales, seals, sea lions, and otters.
• Understand the series of shapes you see as a whale spouts.
• Learn techniques to foreshorten whale flukes,
• Represent water and open ocean with fast and convincing strokes in pencil and watercolor.
