A lionfish spreads its striped fins among the bright colors of a Florida coral reef. Beautiful Invader is part of Connected by Water, a collection inspired by the places and wildlife of the Florida Reef Tract.
Invasive lionfish are beautiful but harmful predators. They eat many native fish, including species that help keep reefs healthy. Divers help control their numbers by removing them with spears, and lionfish tournaments encourage more harvesting. Lionfish are also edible and served in Florida restaurants, giving people another way to help protect native reef life.
This small original explores the contrast between the lionfish’s striking beauty and its impact on the reef.
Size: 6 × 6 inches
Medium: Mixed media, including acrylic on paper
