Imagine life in the ocean off the coast of Southern California. Whether living in a tidepool, on a rocky reef or in a kelp forest, each animal is beautifully adapted to its own unique habitat. With brush or pen in hand, dive into this amazing world with Laguna Beach artist and educator Karen Talbot, and see firsthand how these animal’s amazing adaptations make them as fun to draw as they are to observe. Karen’s firsthand experience as a surfer, diver, angler, and artist will inspire your exploration of the Pacific Ocean through hands-on activities leading to the creation of your own masterpiece, which, in turn, will inspire others to explore, appreciate and conserve our precious ocean habitat.
