Reflection
When I began thinking about what I would draw, I thought about how I throw things away each day and don’t always think about where they may end up. I tried to show in my drawing that even though we may not see it, the garbage we produce is there, and harming our oceans. Everything on the surface may be beautiful but below the damage is being done. We need to think carefully about where we are disposing of things, and what can be reused and recycled so we aren’t making these giant junkyards of plastic and garbage in our oceans.
