Looks pretty amateurish. Paint over the artists name.

I understand why his name is shown...just wondering why it's so big and centered. Lol

You have a typo in the first sentence of your blog.

He's trying to keep up with Peter Max.

Thanks. It's actually spelled correctly. For whatever reason, that's how it shows via a mobile device or tablet. It's shown correctly on a computer and when I wrote it. Don't know why it's appearing like that...

Yikes! That's weird. It almost looks jumbled.

I know. It's frustrating. Lol. Hasn't happened before. If you look carefully, some other words with the letter "i" and "f" next to each other looked jumbled. Lol

The artist for Breakaway is Perter Max , the artist for Bliss is a well known marine life artist.

Right. I just wanted to make sure Peter Max was Breakaway.

Yes, I was just comparing it to the oversize, in your face signature on Breakaway.

I love Wyland art. This will be beautiful once it is done!

[Sotermarler]

Wyland is my favorite marine painter. He's big in HI.

Some may think it's Wyland Cruise Lines.

We love Wyland. Have several of his painting including a joint Wyland and Guy Harvey painting. Which funny given they will have each painted an NCL ship.

Looks like ghetto crap with the big tag of the "artist's" name.

[pe4all]

I like it. Just wish his name was a bit further down rather than being on top.

[zqvol]

It's Wyland, how can you not like it!

 

That is the best hull art in the fleet!

 

As far as is name being shown as it is that is his style. He has literally done hundreds of large wall murals and featuring his name like that is his trademark. Since NCL chose to use a professional artist who specializes in marine art they get what he wants to give them.

I'm not a huge fan of this art. I think it's too similar to Escape. I say this because it's similar colors and again features marine life in water. I love Wyland, but doesn't his stuff usually look more realistic? Like others, I think the name positioning is too much. It looks like the name of the ship is Wyland, or else the cruise line.

[Sissaaaaaa]

I love it!

I agree. I too am a fan of his work, but this seems more like graffiti to me. Also, with recent incidents, I find whales across the bow a tad bit distasteful. I don't hate it, but I certainly don't like it.

Beautiful - and PERFECT for the Seattle to Alaska theme. Love it.

What??! What "recent incidents"? It is an Alaskan based ship.
