What an Animal – Illustrations of Whales

What an Animal is a new series here at Design Informer. We will be showcasing illustrations of different animals. I got the idea while browsing Squared Eye’s website. Their mascot is Levi the whale. I really liked that mascot and I thought to myself,

“It would be cool to start a series on Design Informer showcasing illustrations of different animals.”

So today’s showcase is about whales and is dedicated to Levi the whale. Enjoy these 20 different whale illustrations. Oh, and I saved my two favorite whales for last. You can see them at the end of the post.

Note: Please click on the images to see them in their websites and to learn more about their artists.

Here are my two favorite whales. Levi and the Fail Whale.

So which one of these whale illustrations is your favorite and why? Leave your answers in the comments below. You can also follow Design Informer on Twitter.

@Azizuan – Yeah, it’s a whale mixed with a dinosaur. The name of the piece is Whalesaur.

@Ajcates – That looks cool as well. Pasquale Silva is an awesome illustrator.
