Just did an illo for a 4-page foldout in Huck Magazine #15
It’s an awareness piece on coral reefs, with lots of coral facts.

Did you know:
- Coral reefs are home to more than 25% of all known marine fish species.
- Corals are both plant and animal at the same time!
- The economic value of the world’s reefs has been estimated at over $30bn.
- 500 million people depend on coral reefs for their livelihood.

Sadly, man’s influence, through coastal development, pollution, over-fishing, etc. is destroying these beautiful reefs at an alarming rate. Time to get educated and involved. Click here to get your copy of Huck and check out the full article.
