I recently delivered this fun sculptural whale ‘Ocean Child’ to the Lincoln City Cultural Center where it will eventually be mounted for display in front of the center. The piece was created in recycled steel and copper with a large driftwood bas (not shown). No actual whales were killed to create this 100% vegan piece.
