I started working on this treasure chest with broken bottles as a final large piece from the 42 bottles and 42 pirate booties drawings (See below)…

There is actually another treasure chest I started drawing on the back. I actually like this treasure chest design better. It is the one from the 42 drawings that is covered in coral and is really actually a much more abstract treasure chest. I plan to finish both. The form of this treasure chest below is more novel. This is one of the reasons I like it. I also feel it will be more aesthetically pleasing, but probably not as marketable. So I will plan to finish both and see which one is better.
