The painting of a lumpfish, Cyclopterus lumpus, is meant to inform and educate.

The fact that this fish has a suction disc on the bottom of its body which aids in clinging to rocks to prevent drifting in the current seems improbable and fascinating. The young fish uses its suction disc to attach to or under seaweed where it can hide from predators. The artwork portrays several juvenile lumpfish clinging to kelp, while also depicting a bit of life cycle through the behavior of an adult male lumpfish guarding the 80,000 to 200,000 eggs left by the female before she goes back out into the open ocean.
