Hi guys!
My today's work is a tribute to all ocean creatures and an alert to a big and sad problem, plastics!
The problem
300 million tons of plastic are produced every year in the world, from those 300 million at least 8 million end up in our oceans each year and make up to 80% of all marine debris from surface water to deepwater sediment.
Bottles, shopping bags, cups, straws, etc... all this sort of objects ends in ingestion, suffocation and entanglement of hundreds of marine species. Marine wildlife such as whales, turtles, seabirds and fish confuse this plastic objects with prey, and most starve to death with their stomachs full of plastic debris because under the influence of solar UV radiation, wind, currents, etc, this plastic objects turn in fragments and small particles.
This work was made in my mobile phone with Sony Sketch App for Android.
Cheers and let's Save the Oceans!
It is an excellent representation of the terrible reality. We need to create more consciousnes for the benefit of all. A hug @doze ;)

Hi @achimmertens :) thanks!
I think is practice and layers :) you try, if don't like delete, and try till you feel the result.
Sometimes I restyle the result with PicsArt App for Android.

Nice creative work with a great write up to back it. I am still wondering if those plastics digest in their belly.

Yes yes yes this is the one of the worlds biggest problems. The oceans are key to survival and we know little of their importance really. It really annoys me when these so call climate protesters get loud and the oceans are never mentioned only cars and the like. This is where we need to focus out attentions in this world this is where the problem lies 💯🐒
Agree! Oceans are a prime subject for our lifes.
Thanks! :)
