Artist's Comments

I worked on this all day long as soon as I heard the news of his death. It was always my lifelong dream to go to the Australian zoo and meet him. Now I no longer have a lifelong goal. I feel bad for his children and his family.

Software: Photoshop CS2

Time: a long time

Refrence: I used a refrence but I completely forget where I found it at. (oops) I'll have to search for it later.

This was painted entirly by scratch. Copyright Bapity88.

Yikes, I can only imagine how bad that would feel. I still want to visit the Australia zoo but it won't be the same.

Yeah, it was definately shocking. Why a stingray? There are only like 3 documented deaths from stingrays ever. (that's what I heard on CNN today anyway). So that was definately crazy.

of all the animals and situations he's dealt with and survived... a freakin stingray got him. he'll definitely be in my prayers, i supose one can only escape death so many times... nice pic btw, definitely sharp work on the clothing, the work in the feathers was a nice touch

Thank you. Yeah, it's so weird that someone can work with the most dangerous animals everyday but get killed by a stingray. I've even petted a stingray before (although it's stinger was cut off) they seem so gentle.

It's so sad, of all the things he has done, it morns everyone. I felt really sorry when hearing upon the news, and I did idolize him too. :(

yeah, it's just weird that it was such a seemingly harmless swim with the stingrays that killed him instead of snakes or the many other dangerous things he handled everday.
