An underwater drawing of various marine animals, like a shark, a starfish, and various small fish. There are also two large rocks coming out from the ocean floor.

I enjoyed making this drawing in class because I love animals, especially marine life. Spending so much time near the water as a kid helped spark my fascination with all types of sea creatures. To this day, I often use them as inspiration for when I design characters. I still think that if I hadn’t chosen to become an illustrator, I probably would have tried to become a marine biologist.
