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
In typical Matilda fashion, having been excited to draw a triggerfish for today’s #Sundayfishsketch she then changed her mind and has now done a yelloweye filefish.
Full disclosure: this #sundayfishsketch is cheating and I didn’t draw any of these this week! But here are the triggerfish and filefish I’ve drawn for my dangcutefish Instagram account! I LOVE #filefish and #triggerfish!
Ohno Bakufu (大野麦風, 1888–1976)
From the series of 72 fish prints, Pictures of Fish in Japan
Flying fish 1937
Thread-sail Filefish 1938
Sea Bream 1939
Scorpion Fish 1940
The best three-horned face of the #Cretaceous was a fish. Don't @ me. This is #Tricerichthys wenzi (Taverne & Capasso 2015), a pycnodont that resembled a sea robin head on a filefish body. Thread (1/4) #SundayFishSketch #SciArt #PaleoArt #TeamFish
Tassle Filefish, Chaetodermis penicilligerus. These cute little filefish have stripes, spots, and tassel-like appendages, all to help them camouflage! #dangcutefish
