After going to the Marine Wildlife off our Coasts: Studying Sea birds, Marine Mammals and More seminar by Meredith Elliott and learning about different species of birds and our ocean, I decided this was the perfect opportunity to use my crochet skills to make a seagull! Meredith Elliot, a Principal Scientist for Point Blue’s California, came to the Marin Science Seminar on Oct. 30 to teach students about ocean acidification and different types of investigations to find the diets and populations of marine animals. This work hugely motivated me to create this piece, to connect art and the environment together.
