Mixed media collage on paper

Beluga whales that reside in Cook Inlet, Alaska, are endangered due to human activity - overfishing, underwater noise, shipping and energy exploration, and development. Their population has declined by more than 80% since 1979. This mixed media painting shows active oil and gas rigs in the Inlet, (ironically named after the species they threaten), as well as the different types of fish these Belugas depend on.
