For those who have many watchers, and for those who don’t have many, it is hard to know how one retains that interest as well as receive more. This article explores the basics of watchers and how we react to certain situations. Although it does not affect some deviants, and the tips are generally related to common sense, we hope the article is a worthwhile read and that the majority learn something from reading this.

Artist's Comments
I did this pic for Mr. Tumnus at pokecommunity.com. She asked for a pic of a killer whale (i prefer to call them Orcas), with the name 'Keiko' over the top. Keiko she said was the whale that played Willy in 'Free Willy'. I decided that I wanted to draw the actual Keiko as I thought it would be a bit unfair on such a beautiful creatures memory. I found the official site used to support him [link] It's such a sad story.. I knew a fair bit before, just not in so much detail..though there is some good things that happen, and I used a pic on there as a model for my own drawing (i did change the background a bit though). It was an honour to do this and a good change. I enjoyed it and I hope this is my tribute to such an amazing animal. May his spirit rest in peace.Keiko, Willy and Free Willy are either copyrighted or belong to respected owner to whom the name rights remain.

It's really sad about Keiko. He ended his days in Norway. I saw him on the news almoust every week before he died. People wanted to visit him all the time. I don't think he was happy. Hopefully he's in a better place now swimming in the ocean of paradise with his wale friends

This is very Hollywood, and yeah, I got the joke.

Its such a sad thought to know that he died due to some cold... I think... *sighs*
Great picture! Very nice colours! And you've drawn him so well... I need to see the movies all again...
Really, this is so impressive - especially the water splashes and the way you highlighted the body. ^___^
