The screenwriter of Wild Fish is China native fish expert Tao Xudong, and the illustrator is native fish lover, university teacher and painter Zhang Guogang. Both authors love nature observation, pay close attention to the living conditions of wild animals and plants, and actively participate in various environmental protection undertakings.

This book records all kinds of wild fish in ponds, rivers, streams, estuaries and various wetlands in China. There are many kinds of fish, including four well-known fish, some little known, some as big as finless porpoise called "Jiang pig" and some as small as whitebait. In recent decades, China's natural ecological environment has suffered great pollution. The food chain has been destroyed, and many species are in danger of extinction. The crisis brought to nature by alien species artificially has broken the original ecological balance and concentrated on the familiar fish. Many teenagers know about fish from dining tables and aquariums, but they know little about fish and their living environment. In fact, there are many dazzling fish in nature. They have interesting habits and survival wisdom no less than human beings. They also have their homes destroyed and their race is facing the sadness of extinction. This book restores a real and vivid fish world to teenagers, lets them know about these friends who live on the earth, arouses their attention and arouses their love. Let them understand that they are closely related to us, and the natural problems they face are also the ecological crisis we face.

The author of this book describes the seemingly boring world of fish in kind and plain language, which is rigorous and vivid and draws on classics. With literary language and story structure easily accepted by young readers, this paper tells the living conditions of wild fish in China for thousands or even hundreds of millions of years, and depicts the environment where fish live with us now. Between the lines is full of feelings and deep love for nature and fish, which can well arouse readers' attention and love for fish and their yearning for field observation, understand the necessary knowledge of field observation, and arouse readers' thinking about fish and the whole ecological environment.

Realistic and elegant hand-painted fish illustrations are also a highlight of this book. The painter artistically presents the postures of various fishes and the ecological environment of wild fishes. At the same time, he can scientifically and realistically restore the characteristics of wild fish through frequent and meticulous observation and years of description.

How to make hand-drawn illustrations with AI 1 After opening AdobeIllustrator and creating a new document with a width of 850x850 pixels, we started to draw the head portrait, which is the same for all women. Use the ellipse tool (L) to draw an ellipse. In the picture below, you can see the fill color you need. Change this shape: enter effect > deformation > fish. Enter the options you see below and press OK.

2. For the eyes, first create a brown ellipse (using the ellipse tool (L)). Turn slightly to the left. Next, create a white ellipse in front of the brown (use Control-C and Control-F). Move diagonally downward to the right.

End your eyes with a small dark brown circle. To make a uniform circle, use the ellipse tool (L) while holding down the Shift key. Finally, group all eyes (right click >; Group).

Put your eyes on the left side of your head. Hold down the Alt key with the reflection tool (O) and click on the forehead. In the new dialog window, select vertical, with an angle of 90 degrees, and then press Copy. You should have two eyes by now.

4. Draw a small circle on the face where the nose is. Create another circle, keep it selected, pick up the eyedropper tool (I) and click on the face. Now, your new circle will get the same color as your face. Overlap the two circles so that you can see the shape of the new moon. This is the nose.

Use the same technique to create ears. Take the reflection tool (O), hold down the Alt key and click in the middle of the head. In the new dialog window, select vertical, with an angle of 90 degrees, and then press Copy. You should have two ears by now.

5. do eyebrows. Use the ellipse tool (L) to create a thin and horizontal black ellipse. Then use the direct selection tool (a) to select by dragging the top and bottom anchor points of the ellipse and sliding up. This will be the eyebrows.

6. Put your eyebrows on the left. Rotate at will, but you want to-just don't make her angry! Create another eyebrow using the same technique as creating eyes and ears. Now you have two eyebrows.

7. To draw the mouth, draw a new horizontal ellipse. Select this new ellipse and transform them by clicking the left and right anchor points with the Transform Anchor Point Tool (Shift-C). Create a new white ellipse (Control-C, Control-F) in front.

Shrink it, but make sure the white ellipse stays inside the brown ellipse. The whole mouth is very important.

After that, influence > twist > arc, and enter the options you see below.

8. Using the rectangle tool (M), add a rectangle under the head to create the neck. It should be the same color as the face. In the selected state, go to Effect >；; Distortion > highlights. In the new dialog window, enter the options shown in the figure below. Expand the shape (object >；; Expand the appearance).

9. To finish the head, let's add some curly hair. Draw a big circle behind your head. Leave it selected and go to object > path > add anchor. Do this a few times and you will notice how to add anchor points evenly on the circle.

Then go to the effect >; Distortion and deformation >: folding and expansion. In the new dialog window, move the slider to the right to get 6%, and then press OK. You should finally look like curly hair. Don't forget to enlarge this shape (object >；; Expand the appearance).
