Vicky Scott paints an adorable whale tail as part of Brighton's 2015 Whalefest.

The event takes place this weekend (14th-15th March) in Brighton Centre and is a campaign to keep whales and dolphins in the wild rather than in captivity. Vicky and the other artists involved were given a blank tail and a short biography about the orca whose story their tail needed to represent. Vicky says "...mine was a baby orca called Kamea whose family came from the warm tropical Atlantic". The tails will be on display this weekend and are being auctioned for charity too.
