Artist's Comments

The companion piece to "Cuttlefish Hat."

I firmly believe that there is no more beautiful animal in nature than the walrus. I mean, the hide! The hide! It's like--like--walrus hide! It's spectacular! Go look at a walrus if you don't believe me. Seriously. I defy any artist not to be wowed by walrus skin.

Given the tusks, it should be pointed out that the walrus sporting this stylish invertebrate headgear is, in fact, a male walrus. To which I say "Look, if we've already got a walrus wearing a jellyfish hat, does a transvestite walrus wearing a jellyfish hat really take us that much farther down the garden path?"

Prints available, original 16 x 20 mixed media also available at the time of this writing, visit [link] for either.

shes feeling unloved.... lets eat her!

I stood upon a high place, and saw below, many devils;
Running, leaping, and carousing in sin.

One looked up, grinning, and said, "Comrade! Brother!"
:iconrayfan:
Hey, maybe walruses haven't bought into that macho thing and they're still in the Elizabethan era when males didn't mind flaunting it. Regardless, he looks great in that hat!

But I think, with those short tusks, it probably is a female walrus... according to my research. :D

Calm down? Be a decent, civil human being? On the internet? You speak folly.
:iconeotm:
I love your trans walrus, he islike saying, "Gay pride man, gay pride." But in a loud walrus type langue, beucase it is know that walruses speak walrus, not human or English at anyrate, though they might speak Spainsh...now where was I, oh yeah! I love your art, it's great, keep it up!
