Manatees swimming under water

image size is 11 by 7 1/2 inches

This piece is a little comical, something I don't really do with my painting but every time I try to paint Manatees it just seems to come out that way.
The first time I swam with Manatees I was in high school. We used drive up to the Homasassa River and snorkel. I had heard of Manatees but was not really aware of them. I about had a heartattack when one swam so close to me the turbulence of its passing turned me around. I had no idea they were so big, it was like a submarine passing by.
Manatees are called the gentle giants. They are a very peaceful and sweet animal, so boaters please be watchful!
