Sharkwater (Not a Pool)

Sharkwater (Not a Pool)

“Sharkwater (Not a Pool)” is my latest piece and focuses on the problem of sea-life in captivity. At what cost do humans need to benefit our entertainment? It also attempts to examine what the earth’s ecosystem has suffered due to myths and fears of predatory animals along with mass hunting, finning and marine pollution. It’s oil on canvas and measures 14×11″. If interested in purchasing, send me a message!

In other news, I’ve also been accepted into another online art gallery by the name of Artfinder.com. I’ve got some current work there and I invite you all to “follow” my store. Check it out here: artfinder.com/will-eskridge

Until the next 30 moons…

I grew up with a veterinarian as a father and an artist as a mother. Having a father as a veterinarian instilled in me a deep affinity for animals. All the animal companions we took in were rejects from Dad’s practice whom clients had left behind.

Helping out at my father’s practice gave me direct behind-the-scenes access into the lives of animals on a daily basis. It is hard to pinpoint an exact time, but I was very young when I slowly realized that animals were not all that different than humans. Time and time again I saw various cats and dogs expressing emotion and feeling beyond basic instinct. Witnessing both happy moments and not so happy moments between owners and pets made me realize the massive impact animals have on humans and vice versa. Some call it energy. Some call it spirit. But we can all agree that there is something connecting us all. To paraphrase: We are not animal beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having an animal experience.
