Black and white illustration of a boat and sea creatures

under the sea

This is an environment study I did of the Arctic which really explores composition, lighting and colour. I deliberately chose the camera view to show both above and below the sea. Having this split screen really creates a narrative feel to the whole illustration, which is a technique I would definitely use again.

I would love to develop this further adding subtle movement, or to even create a short story around it.
