Images for my collages

I wrote a list of all the smaller images I need to produce for for albatross silhouettes, and have spent the last few days creating a lot of this work. 

Firstly I created a few quick watercolour and pen drawings of baby Laysan albatross, as our plastic effects them more than the adult birds. 

I also have drawn and created my own plastic bottles and items. I created these 2 out of felt, as I enjoyed working in felt in my previous project and wanted to have that aspect included in my work still. 

Watercolour and pen drawing of a fishing boat, as the fishing industry is one of the main contributors towards the plastic pollution in the ocean. 

Here are some quick fishes I created out of felt again to go in my sea scenes.

Originally, I was going to draw a modern day passenger jet as bird strike is another (although minor) threat to the albatrosses. However, I researched into World War II today which had an iconic navy battle around Midway Atoll. I therefore decided to change this plane into a WWII Douglas Dauntless which was used to bomb Japanese navy ships nearby the atoll. This plane therefore symbolises two different things related to Midway Atoll. 

A quick painting of the beach showing plastic washed up on shore. I'm intended to use this as a background somewhere.

A spinner dolphin, another animal that lives near Midway Atoll and is effected by the plastic pollution.
