Plastics

This is a followup to the last piece. It depicts jellyfish and plastic in the ocean. I am happy with it, except for the fact that I intended to have a more interesting shape in the end, rather than just filling up the whole page with one rectangle!

My works seem to be seen best from a short distance, and have little contrast to attract anyone from 30 feet away. I heard in a lecture once that a work of art should be interesting from all different distances. I must try to overcome this need to fill up the whole page!
