Description
This was a fun and challenging one to do, just a basic depiction of the Noah's flood. So doing a bit of a dive on this (pun intended), I found that the British Museum had discovered in their collection, a small tablet with lines from the Gilgamesh epic that indicated that the vessel might have been more round than the typical ark that we think of (which honestly resembles more recent ideas of a ship) than might have been in the minds of people from thousands of years back. And frankly, it would make much more sense for this to be something of a flotation device (think an inner tube for a lazy river at a theme park) as it didn't need to get anywhere, just survive the flood.

So here's my take on Noah's ark. In my own personal journey, I might continue to tweak this one and see what I come up with, but for the publisher, this was what we landed on (and yet another ark pun...)
