As a result of the deforestation in Horry County, many animals are losing their homes. Without trees, the animals have nowhere to go or a place to call home. This is what inspired me to create my illustration "A Place to Call Home.” I used Adobe Illustrator to make this forest scene with a bear silhouette to symbolize animals in their natural habitat, as well as draw attention to how important it is to them. It is crucial that we learn to appreciate our forests and why they should be valued.
