I chose this image because the thick lines drawn around the characters give the illusion that they are in water. I found it interesting that the lines bend around the people, as if the water is being displaced by their presence. It creates a lot of movement. I also love how there is a big contrast between the blue lines and the white background. This gave the illustrator a way to make the direction in the water stand out, further adding to the feeling movement around the people in the drawing. I think the heavy lines in this piece are also effective because water is heavy. If the illustrator had used many thin lines the image would not have been as impactful because water is deep and dense. It is well represented through the thick lines.
