Tray

Here's "Tray": the little spaniel dog that faithfully accompanied Mary Anning throughout all her excursions around the cliffs of Lyme Regis. Searching for fossils and climbing the cliffs was a very hardcore and dangerous task, so much so that the real Tray sadly died in a rockfall that also almost killed Mary in 1833. It was heartbreaking to read her letters about that time in her biography and I wanted to portray that dangerous element of their job including a little bandaid on Tray's leg (as if it wasn't the first time they encountered dangers before).
