20.000 Leagues Under The Seas

Watercolor illustration of a very spooky moment from Jules Verne's famous novel.
If i recall right, the protagonists are returning to their base after a long walk on the seafloor in a varech forest, when they're caught offguard by 2 gigantic sharks...
Sorry thalassophobiacs !

I tried to emphasize both the physical presence of the shark, and its non presence through its glazed gaze. I always thought fish had that unnerving feeling of being run only by instincts, like a machine...

A few minutes before the squale incident......................... Suspense !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
