“Great White Gobstopper” is a Shark VS Zombie Original Painting. A clever way to get rid of zombies is to drop them in the ocean near False Bay (Valsbaai), South Africa or Isla Guadalupe: the volcanic island 160 miles off the coast of Baja, California. It is said that there is a Great White near Cali that weighs around 1800 pounds. That should do it for zombie extermination if the world ever succumbs to the undead plague. It’s a cool concept, so I had to paint this giant shark sucking on a zombie skull. This is the second artwork in my new series: Hard Candy – The first painting to be sold was “Crocodile Lollipop”. Measuring a huge 40″High x 30″Wide, this will be the conversation piece of any celebration in any room that can handle a shark centerpiece.
