About the Project
These fun iIlustrations focus on the life cycle, behavior, and conservation history of the Alaska sea otter. The project was a collaboration between myself and musician and former Alaska SeaLife Center Education Coordinator and Kenai Fjords Park Ranger Jim Pfieffenberger. Jim and I met remotely each week to exchange concepts, reference material, sketches, and iterations to compliment the lyrics and educational text to his song, "Swimming on Your Back". You can find this song from the "Tunes from the Tides" album here on Spotify.

Sketches





"Oh sea otter, swimming on your back
Oh sea otter, you really know how to relax
The water's cold along the coast,
but your fur coat keeps you warm as toast
Oh, sea otter, swimming on your back"
"Oh sea otter, swimming on your back
Oh sea otter, you really know how to relax
The water's cold along the coast,
but your fur coat keeps you warm as toast
Oh, sea otter, swimming on your back"
