Tears for the Ocean

Reflection

Seeing all of the pictures of turtles that grow around plastic and the seas of dead fish really makes me feel like I should be doing something to help. I really hope to spread the word about ocean pollution using my artwork. In my artwork, I drew an aquarium, which represents the ocean, and the many problems within because of pollution. There’s a girl on the side who is grieving for the animals killed by human neglect. There are two hands by the top that are trying help by cleaning out the trash. I hope by using my artwork, I can help the ocean become cleaner and better for all the marine life.
