How do fish ride bikes? For I asked my fish friends. Only about 10% flop their tail over the handlebars. Most fish prefer tail sailing behind, rudder-like. Alma here demonstrates on her little trike. Can’t operate the pedals anyway, she's propelled by the current.

It's so I'll warn you that in a dank corner of the lobby of your haunted seaside hotel, Mr. Fishsticks is waiting patiently for your arrival, sitting in a creepy crab chair. Dim light casts depressing shadows on the fishbone wallpaper from last week's

Thought we were done, but so many fish were bitter they didn’t get a role in the alphabet I’ll have to do some digits. Yes, seahorse are fish! They can be any color, blending in. For the 4, I feature lingcod, only the luckiest 15-20% of which are turquoise. Truth!

New joined in fun last week and challenged me to make a Crappie consonant. The big challenge is that it’s a fat shape, letter shapes are made of strokes and curves. Here’s both Black Crappie & White Crappie as letter V/thread:

This I’m still recovering from a nasty case of Covid. I did make a fish though and deposited her in an old drawing of a chair. White Sturgeon, a west coast fish, grows upwards of half a ton. Plenty of cool barbels and spiky things. Info in thread!

Not a very happy I have been quite sick with Covid for several days, miserable. Finally caught me, thank goodness I am vax'd and have had both boosters, I have other underlying conditions. Well enough to get in the art studio this afternoon for a couple hours.

Here’s your reminder to share your chair with a friend. Children and fish do not occupy chairs like adult humans. small surprises in the thread:

Coy fish. Sorry, not sorry, but mostly not sorry, puns make the world go ‘round. For it’s usually a fish in a chair. I like this one, may print greeting cards. Maybe she'll be holding a fan. Why am I wasting my time on these? Why am I on Twitter? I have no answers.

This week, for it feels right to feature the Widow Rockfish. She looks harmless enough, but that dorsal fin can put you in a world of hurt. Cross her at your peril. I stole the bamboo rocking chair from another character in my current WIP.

Often for I showcase the day’s fish supported on furniture, because I like to draw chairs as well as fish. But I do realize that not all fish sit upright, especially the one in this mood piece. Sometimes fish just gotta flop.

It's still here on the west coast. Things seem extra crazy, I hope you all get a chance to relax and enjoy yourselves over the weekend. And keep that thought that today & every day is Earth Day, when we love and respect our planet, inhabitants, ecosystems. 🐟🐠🌎🌍🌏

For here's Mr. Swordfish, captivated by his ugly mermaid doll. ProTip: Never use really wretchedly bad watercolor paper, even this crappiest of warmup sketches deserved better than that. It made me want to stab something, fortunately, I had a handy swordfish.

Happy Today I am celebrating the community by recycling some bookish fish I made for my San Diego Chapter newsletter. Share your books with fish that don't have them, or let an eel read over your shoulder.
