Abstract

Art is a powerful tool that can be used to connect with the general public about conservation. Within this thesis, a series of illustrations and photographs showcase native Florida plants and animals that would benefit from an increased awareness about their conservation status. Some animals, such as the American Alligator, have benefited from increased protections, while others, such as the Florida Panther, have lost critical habitat and continue to decline in population. My goal is to educate and engage the public about these essential plants, animals, and ecosystems in order to encourage conservation. In this thesis, I will explain the importance of art as a conservation tool while providing examples of plants and animals that require conservation.
