Super excited to share my Vaquita piece for the new 2024 issue of Sea Unseen Zine (@seaunseenzine)! There are over 60 gorgeous marine-themed artworks in this issue, and all proceeds go towards the Australian Marine Conservation Society 🌊🐋🦈🦐

Keep reading below to learn a bit more about this small, critically endangered cetacean!

At just around 95 lbs in mass and 4.5 feet in length, the Vaquita (Phocoena sinus) is the world's smallest living cetacean! Like many other porpoises, they feed on a range small fish, squid, and crustaceans within their locality. They have an incredibly small range, known only to reside in shallow waters in upper Gulf of California. Due to their rarity, not much else is known about this species.

Sadly, the Vaquita is on the brink of extinction. Recent estimates suggest only 10 individuals remain. Illegal fishing operations result in these little cetaceans becoming bycatch, and is the biggest cause of their decline.

Current conservation efforts for the Vaquita seek to mitigate threats such as fisheries, pollution, and habitat destruction. Hopefully, with enough protection and patience, the population of this incredible animal will stabilize and even recover 💙

I've loved marine biology and the ocean since I was a kid and I also used to do a lot of wildlife art before I got into drawing more anime-style fanart, so this piece has a lot of special meaning for me~ Plus stingrays are my absolute fave animals :DDD Thank you again for having me, it was such an honour!! 🌊🪸🐠 Go check out the zine here!! It's only $1, there's tons of gorgeous art, and it supports the Australian Marine Conservation Society!

My piece for this year's @seaunseenzine, a Common Murre

I was fascinated by how these birds are so monochrome with such bright colorful eggs and how that makes the colors in their surroundings pop all the more.

You can still get a copy of the full zine for $1 at the itch.io page with all proceeds going to the Australian Marine Conservation Society
