Here’s my fishy recreation of The Dance by Matisse. Loosely based on the Onaga (Etelis coruscans) and the long slender points on their caudal fins. #SundayFishSketch
Andrew Wyeth's Christina's World becomes Catfish's World when I added a walking catfish for the #sundayfishsketch @GettyMuseum challenge.
She looks a bit like a seal though. 😏

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
Today, for #SundayFishSketch, I illustrated another set of fish jaws to add to my growing collection! Pterycombus petersii, the prickly fanfish! #Ichthyology #FishSci #SciArt #Anatomy #ComparativeAnatomy
My ugly fish for this #SundayFishSketch is the goblin shark, or is it the plastic packets?? 🤣
For the "Quarantine Fish" #SundayFishSketch I present you the bowfin, the master of work/family balance. If you identify to it, take a deep breath, It will be ok! #scicomm #bowfinball @PrimitiveFishes
Another #SundayFishSketch is #WhatsOnMyWhiteboard this week. Thanks @JeanVAdams for the suggestion and congrats on your defense!! #sciencetwitter keep the suggestions coming!

A cow for my partner's birthday and a cowfish for #sundayfishsketch #sciart
Have you ever thought, "I like #fish, but I want them to look at least 100% weirder?" Well has #SundayFishSketch got a theme for you this week! It's ichthyoplankton-the baby forms of fish. Here's a larval butterflyfish. #scicomm
And talk about a glow-up! The European eel's life cycle was so mysterious that even the Greek philosopher Aristotle pondered where eels came from - he decided that they sprung up spontaneously from the mud #SundayFishSketch
Juvenile frogfish #SundayFishSketch - my significant other thought I was sketching a Doritos 😂😂😂
The European eel's life history was a mystery for centuries, as fishermen never caught anything they could identify as a young eel. The transparent, leaf-shaped larvae - called leptocephali - begin their journey in the Sargasso Sea before drifting towards Europe #SundayFishSketch
