Oh, I love it! I like the thinness of the water and all the empty space reinforcing the edgeness. Besides, the ship and sailors are very cute...in a good way of course.

Way cool! I love how the edge of the water seems only a few feet deep :). I agree with saisai!

This is ingenious! The composition is brilliant. Poor little adventurers. I hope they ended up in a happier dimension.

This is really great. This is everything an illustration should be. It tells a story and intrigues the viewer. I want to know more about these sailors and the world they live in.
