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. At home in a classroom, naturalist's study, or child's bedroom filled with curiosity. A Baltic birch top with a beveled edge and satin finish, the artwork printed across it, made to order on steel legs in black or gold. A working piece of furniture that earns its place as an independent artist's work.
