I used my whimsical fish, based on drawings and photographs of real fish, shells, coral, seaweeds, jelly fish and sea horses, to try to show the immense variety of wonder and wild life that lives beneath our oceans. All these creatures, because we depend on each other, rely on us to keep it a living breathing biosphere. As we continue to destroy our environment so we will continue to destroy this abundance and in turn our own destiny.
