My illustration shows a parrot fish.
The technique I have used is pen and chinese ink.
I wanted a very contrast artwork, one that you could see from far, thus i choose
black and white.
I was also looking for a very detailed and refine illustration to attract people's attention to the suject.
All the busy and intricate pattern that forms the fish shows our coral reef ecosystem, with patterns from corals, anemones, algae and little fish.
My goal is to make people aware that this fish preserve our corals by eating algae and also procude sands which gives our white sandy beaches.
We need to stop fishing it and start takinng care of our coral reefs.
