I’ve not participated in Illustration Friday for a few weeks, and had a look at their prompt for this week, which is Ocean. I thought that’s an easy prompt, and then went away and wondered how I could illustrate the ocean.
At first, I thought I’d try to come up with an image with a variety of dolphins, whales, sharks and other large sea-dwelling creatures, with a ship on the horizon, and then had second thoughts. In my mind’s eye, I saw a busy mess, and wanted a simple illustration.
I came up with one fish (please don’t ask what type of fish it is) and copied it many times onto the background. And this isn’t as busy as my original idea was.
As I like to fly, I thought I’d have the fish flying as well, leaping from the depths of the ocean to feel the warmth of the sun. Whether fish feel warmth is another thing entirely, but being Piscean myself, I hope to think that they do!
