Descripción:

An adult female monk seal with her pup in a sea cave.

This illustration was created in collaboration with marine biologists from the University of Genoa (Italy) for an Instagram post, with the aim of sharing some interesting facts about sea caves and the animals that inhabit them.

I had the opportunity to represent many different scenes to show what happens inside sea caves. I chose to depict an exchange of glances between the two monk seals because I believe it captures a tender moment between mother and pup. As for the colors, I had no doubts: from the very beginning I thought that the deep blue of the cave and the light blue of the water could frame the warmer tones of the two subjects.
