The Great Lakes

from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Lakes

The Great Lakes, also called the Great Lakes of North America, are a series of large interconnected freshwater lakes in the east-central interior of North America that connect to the Atlantic Ocean via the Saint Lawrence River. The five lakes are Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie, and Ontario and they are in general on or near the Canada–United States border.

The Great Lakes are the largest group of freshwater lakes on Earth by total area and are second-largest by total volume, containing 21% of the world's surface fresh water by volume.

That looks just like a Japanese painting!

Fun fact I learned at a recent exhibit on Hokusai: that painting is the only piece of art that has its own emoji. 🌊

Depends how you define art I think - for example: 🗽🗿

True. I think painting would probably be the more accurate word to have used. Though, I would love a Picasso emoji...
