Indian Island * Consignment
The summer of 1984 will always hold a special place in my heart and mind. Tofino and Clayoquot Sound had a very special visitor that came early in the summer and stayed until September. Most people called her "Friendly." She was a young grey whale about 20 feet long. Every day she would come into Grice Bay with the high tide to feed in the shallow waters beside Indian Island.
Thousands of people came to see her and were thrilled by the sight of a grey whale at close quarters. We made many trips on our boat to visit "Friendly," and were always excited, and somewhat in awe, of such a large creature who allowed us to come within a few feet from her. Friendly has left our waters to roam over the oceans, perhaps one day to return.
The Painting, INDIAN ISLAND, was created in the memory of a very special grey whale.
