Artist Jimmy Swift transformed a rock in South Goa, India into a ‘Jaws’ inspired shark head

Swift, who had noticed the perfectly shaped head, was inspired by a movie poster from Jaws.

The movie, he acknowledged scared the crap out of his life when he was a kid.  

Sharing the photo on his Instagram, the graffiti artist said: “When I first saw this rock it looked like a perfect place for a great white,” revealed Swift, who painted the shark in March 2015. “It’s truly amazing how Mother Nature can carve out such a perfect shape.” 

While Swift paint creation has become a milestone for travelers in the region, he has worked as an artist for over 15years and has visited over 90 countries.

He added: “The hardest thing I’ve ever painted. I was literally beaten up by the waves and rising tide and forced to stop before it was finished. I could have done better, but between the blowing sand and wind, splashing waves, burning hot sun and the fact I’ve never painted a shark before or painted on a 3-dimensional surface like a rock…. I think it turned out OK. When I first saw this rock it looked like a perfect place for a great white. Hopefully, it doesn’t scare the crap out of people!

The shark has indeed gone to provide photo options for swimmers at the beach.

And interestingly, the white shark was not Swift’s only Mother Nature inspired creation; he also transformed a large rock into an elephant.

Here’s what people are saying about the artistic concept:
