Audio Version of Image Description:
An organized collage of colorful drawings outlined in black ink with faint watercolor painted in between each drawing. Starting from the upper left corner, text reads “The Freshwater Dwarf Pufferfish”. Directly below is an elongated tan, black-spotted pufferfish from a side view with a dark gold eye and muted yellow on the back fins and tail. To the right is a white square within a square and small lines surrounding it signifying a glow. Text below reads “Diamond”. To the right is an organic gold shape with text below that reads “Gold”. To the right is a long string of musical notes, notations, staff, clefs, times, and bars. Below is an organic shape with a blend of blue, red, green and yellow. Underneath is text that reads “Male Betta Fish (or Siamese Fighting Fish)” with an arrow pointing towards the shape. Below is the Titanic ship on the water hitting a blue, green iceberg. There is a text blurb that reads “Iceberg, right ahead!” To the left is a glass of milk next to a gold plate of chocolate chip cookies. In between those is a rectangle with a maroon heart. Underneath is a line of Pacman facing four Pacman ghosts in red, orange, turquoise and light pink. Above is a quarter view of a white Wii console with its handheld device leaning against it. Below Pacman is a gray tornado holding cars and animals with lightning bolts extending from it. The tornado touches the ground with trees, rocks and an electric pole. To the right is a train engine with two train cars behind it on a train track. One train car is yellow with a red roof, light blue windows, a red door and the number 665 at the bottom. The other train car is small and black with gold horizontal stripes and text that reads “W.A.R.R.” Above it reads “The General Loco.” with an arrow pointing towards the red, black and silver engine with smoke exiting the top. A neon yellow light protrudes from the front with a “3” on it. The bottom right is a large, rainbow sprinkle, chocolate donut. The artist’s signature is below that. To the left is Nintendo’s Mario on a red, white and blue go kart. A banana peel is behind the back tire. The bottom left corner is a large blue, red, yellow, orange and gray Godzilla breathing fire on a three story white and gray building.
