I colored this picture of a sea turtle and wrote this story about it.

I colored this picture on Zen Color. I‘ve seen sea turtles hatch on nature shows and they really do this. They hatch on the beach and go out to sea quickly so they‘re not eaten by predators and I root for them.

Sea turtles have hatched out of their shells on the beach
They‘re going out to sea now
They need to go out to sea quickly before they get eaten by predators
🌊Go sea turtles! Go! 🌊

Missing child, broken father. An outsider magician and insider woman. Generations of trauma. The hunger of water. Never turn your back on the ocean. I highly recommend Lindqvest and this book.

Had such a great time reading this!
I'm thinking a good 30 percent of that was production value, the choices made in the book's design, to go heavy on the visual impact, including many images of Lego found, of examples of plastic pollution in the ocean, (sometimes as the result of cargo spills, but not always), but photographing and composing the pages so they are art, and even often have an I Spy book quality. 1/?

Oh good, there's a word that. 😖

I mean...the love for vintage is often subjectively the love of old junk - though often it can be better crafted than newer junk...and the study of artifacts is often archaeologists in middens, actual trash piles. Plastic makes up a large amount of our junk for decades now...makes sense old plastic now falls in the realm of enthusiasts, collectors, historians, archaeologists.

Go Jelle!
