Some process pics fore this #SundayFishSketch. #graphite and charcoal on brown stock. Plus ref photo. #SciArt
Watercolor of a Clown Triggerfish for this #Sundayfishsketch. I have never sketched Triggerfishes (Balistidae) or Filefishes (Monacanthidae) so the #fishytheme of “Pick a species of triggerfish or filefish and draw away” was a real challenge for me. #sciart
Once again, Monday’s are my Sunday’s so here is a VERY motivated Bluehead Chub for #SundayFishSketch. Bluehead Chubs are known as the “architects of the streams” due to their strong motivation to make nesting mounds pebble by pebble. #FreshwaterFishAppreciation
Extremely sloppy #SundayFishSketch.
Sword fish and relatives have brain endothermy. Warmer brain and optic nerve benefit these organs when fish encounter steep thermal changes (e.g. deep dives). More in the paper by Wainwright and Longo https://t.co/FSxvC7xRnz
Back to a watercolor attempt for this week’s #SundayFishSketch. Theme is #endothermic fish. Though not truly endothermic, #billfish-like this Indo-pacific sailfish, have heat-producing tissue derived from the superior rectus eye muscle that warms their brain and eyes
My first ever #SundayFishSketch. Turning an inanimate object into a fish. Hammerhead upright vacuum.
An off-theme #SundayFishSketch. A series of #catfish. Colored pencil on the sides of a cardboard box. 4 species, 4 river basins, 4 continents. #Amazon #Mississippi #Mekong #Nile
Not Sunday, not finished, but here a half way through two week old #SundayFishSketch. #sharkweek2020
A Rainbow Trout for this weeks #SundayFishSketch. It is actually non-native fish to the waters of Michigan, yet is stocked and sought after by anglers like me.
Another try at digital painting today for #SundayFishSketch. Mikrogeophagus ramirezi, a blue ram cichlid (electric blue ;) ). #sciart #ichthyology #cichlid
"Colorful fish" is the theme of this week's #SundayFishSketch. Here are our attempts at two of our more colorful species: the canary rockfish and the rock greenling!

This week has been hyper stressful, but here I am trying to catch up with the #sundayfishsketch. The blobfish ,Psychrolutes marcidus, lives at depths from 600 to 1200 meters. They are extremely adapted to high pressures, having gelatinous flesh and neutral buoyancy. #scicomm
Burbot (𝑳𝒐𝒕𝒂 𝒍𝒐𝒕𝒂) for #SundayFishSketch. It is a large fish known to grow to as much as 1.5 m in length and 34 kg in mass. Sketch and colored on @autodesksketchbook #SciArt #scicomm #fishyfriday

It's a free for all for today's #SundayFishSketch. I wanted to play with #AdobeFresco, so I messed around with some of my cleared and stained images and focused on fish jaws. Here are the jaws of three different fishes. The Caquetaia was from several weeks ago. #ichthyology
Our 15-month old makes #SundayFishSketch...interesting. She’s just getting into crayons, so I color with her.
I get about 25 seconds for each sketch before she takes over.
She also randomly swaps crayons with me every few seconds (so lots of colors each fish)🐟🖍
Yellowfin tuna! Thunnus albacares. Their range includes the Australian waters, so it fits the theme for this week's #SundayFishSketch. 🐟 #SciArt
Today marks the second day of the year that I have skipped #SundayFishSketch. While it is not a sketch, I have recently photographed the fish that I think is the #25DaysofFishmas theme (Labidesthes sicculus, brook silverside). #LameAttemptAtSelfPromotion. Happy Holidays! #sciart
A #steelhead as my guess for this week's #sundayFishSketch, plus an idea I was working on while procrastinating for SundayFishSketch. PS, the black box on the second image is only there to block out a bad word.

And a bonus #sundayfishsketch. I’ve been practicing my watercolors with some of my favorite stream fishes in Kansas. Here is a stippled darter. Found only in the extreme SE corner of the state.
