Ahab believes he is fated to kill Moby Dick and live for this purpose alone Moby Dick. The white sperm whale Moby Dick has extraordinary ferocity and also possesses ineffable strength, mystery, and power . The whale clearly represents many things, perhaps including nature, providence, fate, and God himself....... Ahab has just thrown his pipe overboard .

Leon Goodman has been a professional artist for the majority of his working life. His work has been sold at The Omell Gallery, Ascot, as well as Christies, the fine art auction house in London. Many of his works have sold to the U.S for thousands of pounds. (Please check out www.leon-goodman.com ) Since seeing his work, Risborough Art Gallery have made him a regularly featured artist. Leon’s philosophy is that it is not the delineation of the subject which is important, but its fragmentation. He believes a strictly photographic image does not allow the viewer to participate in the painting. If the image is fragmented, the viewer can imagine for himself the missing parts and involve himself in the creation of the whole image. The viewer has seen his own interpretation of the fragmented images; the next viewer may see something different.100% GOLD POWERSELLER.
