Process:

Tasked with illustrating an overview of sea cucumbers’ role in filtering microbes in the seafloor of coral reef habitats for a children’s classroom activity. Researched previous examples of sea cucumber anatomy figures. Developed a composition centering on a leopard sea cucumber's digestive, respiratory, and reproductive systems. Improved on previous depictions of sea cucumbers with the implementation of an in vivo view while simultaneously eating and defecating. Designed graphical elements demonstrating microbe culturing on agar plates, as performed in the activity.
