MOBY-DICK, Page 345

Title: As the three boats lay there on that gently rolling sea, gazing down into its eternal blue noon; and as not a single groan or cry of any sort, nay, not so much as a ripple or a bubble came up from its depths; what landsman would have thought, that beneath all that silence and placidity, the utmost monster of the seas was writhing and wrenching in agony!

  2. Great choice of paper for this one.

    Matt, sorry to use the blog as a communication channel again - are you getting the e-mails from me? Should be 3, and one had questions in.

  3. Thank you Lizzy, poignant is very much what I was hoping for. I'm really very pleased with how the colors for the boats turned out as well.

    It will be interesting to see what my life brings me, personally and aesthetically, when I finally complete the illustration for page 552.
