Sea Creatures....not limited to "under the sea" !

Webster’s dictionary defines creatures:
  1.   A living being, especially an animal.
  2.   A human.
  3.   An imaginary or fantastical being
Sea "Creatures" do not have to be pictorial or even realistic.
 Sea Creatures can be mystical, magical, based on Roman & Greek mythology
Birds fly over the ocean..they are sea creatures too, floating in the air and feeding off the ocean
Starfish and crustaceans live on the shoreline among the rocks and ocean waves
You are the artist, and it is your voice and your choice.
The Juror will be instructed that the exhibit is not limited to art work that
depicts an underwater experience
