Izithombe zisebenzisa isitayela esingavamile (surreal) kanye nefomu ye-montage. Izithombe zabesifazane zibonakala phakathi kwezinhlanzi, ikorali kanye notshani lwasolwandle, kuhambisana nemfucumfucu esalele emanzini. Ukuvumelana phakathi kwabantu nolwandle kuncomeka, kuyilapho ukungcoliswa nokubhujiswa kolwandle kugxekwa. Isithombe ngasinye sidwetshwa ngethebulethi yezithombe (graphics tablet) kusetshenziswa isofthiwe yokupenda yedijithali. Uchungechunge lulungiselelwe ukuphrintwa nokusatshalaliswa kwabezindaba kwi-inthanethi, ngenhloso yokweseka ukuvikelwa kwezilwane zasolwandle.

In the form of montage, it praises the harmony between human beings and the ocean from the front, criticizes the behavior of human destroying the ocean from the back, and expresses human reflection.
Inspiration: The originality of digital art illustration comes from the destruction of the ocean by human beings, and the concern and protection of the ocean ecology by human beings, with the purpose of sustainable development of the ocean.
