Artist's Comments

thank you for the feature and thank you everyone for the comments!

to answer some questions the creature isnt a dolphin by any means, just inspired by a dolphins smile. people are attracted to a dolphins smile and find it cute, but the smile is just the shape of the dolphins jaw. their 'smile' never fades. their teeth are sharp and their brown eyes never let you know what they are really thinking.

the medium is acrylics

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-01-09

Aside from the capture of a shining, naked grin and a calculating stare, Dolphin by ~kaorishima features beautiful color and texture represented by the concomitance of what appears to be a most carnivorous, zebra-esque creature. (Suggested by =purplerose and Featured by `oedalis)

Eerie, but lovely. I like the subtle scales.

This rocks so hard. The creatures' slick designs and crazy grins, added with the playful use of color is faaabulous. <33

:o I was thinking of the friendly dolphin until I saw that...

Other than confusing me, you did a great job on the painting/drawing.

That's so cool! I love the texture on the skin and the teeth really struck me as well. Really effective use of colours.
