Illustrating water quality challenges - this series is some of my recent work, showing how fire, roads & tracks, and eroding gullies can impact water quality (and how a gully can be repaired!)

These were created as part of my work with JCU TropWATER and their collaboration with Cape York Water Quality Partnership for the Eastern Cape York Water Quality Program
