The Legend of Mummichug

This myth was written and illustrated to display the importance of marshes in our ecosystems.  Saltwater marshes are an often overlooked ecosystem due to their apparent quietude, however looking closely they are area essential for filtration, nutrient recycling and attract a wide array of unique creatures.  Creatures such as the Mummichug, a Rhode Island local.  This piece carries on my the themes of the circular, and then moon, and reverence for nature which appear through out much of my artwork.

Enjoy the read!
