Color pencil and oil pastel on paper

This work shows the more hidden creatures of this world; the ones that are often overlooked. Each species represented is heavily affected by habitat loss as a result of climate change. These animals’ habitats are important to their survival as they use camouflage for protection. With this piece, I want to showcase the animals, to implore people to look harder, appreciate the small things, and protect life even if it cannot be seen.
