Oceanic Manta Ray
Tell us a little about your piece?
I was inspired by one of the most mysterious looking fish in the ocean, the Eagle Ray. Its back is covered with a symmetrical dot pattern, that I have used as a reference for my piece.
What was the most challenging part of the brief?
I mainly work with pastel colours, so it was very challenging to use a different scheme paper that aren't part of my usual pallete.
What part of the collaboration did you enjoy the most?
Having the opportunity to collaborate with so many amazing artits on the World Ocean Dayhas been very inspiring and fun project to do.
How did you enjoy working with the paper?
It is very soft and smooth material that I had really enjoyed to work with. It's always nice to try new paper brands and widen my options.
