A stonecat for today's Like many social media users, they've adapted to dangerous environments by being prickly and a bit toxic.

Hey, it's my first This week it's a crossover with and I decided to draw a larva hunting a UV-bright paramecium. It's a bit of a stretch but it's not like paramecia have a backbone anyway😬

Hello friends and followers, I didn't forget about it's combined with I've gotten requests for shark drawings so why not share them finally!

California has a wide variety of shark species, but these three are the ones relevant to my research.

Happy off-theme The Great is a coastal & pelagic shark found in tropical waters. Unlike many species, these sharks reach sexual maturity relatively quickly, at 5-9 yrs/o, & can live for up to 44 yrs! 💙🦈🔨

I had an urgin’ for some sturgeon this These fish can grow over 7ft long, and live more than 50 years. Unfortunately, the caviar industry has driven many species into the critically endangered category.

Thaumatichthys for a fashionably late This thing is just the best- it feeds on sea cucumbers and rotting seaweed and floats around pointing vertically, pointing straight down towards the seafloor. It's my favorite deep-sea fish, and I just love how weird it is!

One of the many for I chose the Irian red rainbowfish. I haven't drawn any pride month art myself (until now), and I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to finally get a piece out there.

Happy Sorry I've been a little MIA, but I do look at them every Sunday, as I have for 2.5 years now! I wanted to add to my growing diagram of fish jaw cartoons. So today, I sketched the jaws of the magnificent tarpon (Megalops atlanticus).

Happy   I recently did some fishy outreach on ‘unique fish reproduction strategies (e.g. hermaphroditism, semelparity, mouthbrooding) and I think it’s a fitting theme for this weekend. Go eat some chocolate and sketch a fish.
