A comprehensive illustrated chart displays over thirty species of ocean life arranged across a white ground, from massive whales and whale sharks to delicate jellyfish, sea turtles, and small fish rendered in naturalistic watercolor tones of blue, gray, coral, and purple. Scientific names in small text line the bottom, creating an educational reference guide that balances detailed anatomical accuracy with a sense of wonder about marine biodiversity. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
