An exhibition revealing Dorset's underwater landscape is now on show at West Bay Discovery Centre.

The original artwork created by Bridport artist Antonia Phillips provides a unique perspective of the seas just off our coastline and was commissioned for a new guide produced by Dorset Wildlife Trust.

The guide, 'Dorset's Wild Seas', aims to introduce people to the amazing variety of marine wildlife and habitats in the county and the network f protected areas recently set up to safeguard it for the future.

Antonia Phillips said: "I was so pleased to be part of this amazing venture.

"With a love of geology and having dived and sketched underwater, the was the most enjoyable challenge for me as an artist.

"The artwork needed to portray Dorset's vibrant underwater landscape and different sediment types in an approachable way. No easy task. The surveys and myriad detailed photos helped me re-imagine being in the landscape."

The exhibition will run until October 31. Admission to the discovery centre is free but donations are welcome.

It is open every day, except Monday, from 11am to 4pm.
