Beneath The Surface
Acrylic on canvas board
We as humans underestimate the damage that we are capable of inflicting on the Earth, especially our ocean. The ocean is so important to me in many ways. 80 percent of life on Earth is found in the ocean. Even in one of the deepest parts of the ocean, scientists found trash at a depth of 10,975 meters inside the Mariana Trench. We need to work harder to protect our beautiful ocean and marine life.
