Reflection
In this artwork, I have depicted many different types of animals that could be killed if they encounter any oil spills. The use of color emphasizes how life in the ocean is before they are all killed by the oil. The barrels at the bottom represent how humans have created these items to hold the oil in, but they are of no use in the ocean and once released, they bring disaster to marine life. I was inspired to draw this as it represents how we treat animals in the ocean; we treat the ocean as if we can throw waste into the ocean. I hope I am able to show to people the dangers of oil spills, and that the ocean is an extremely beautiful place and we should be able to protect it.
