My #SundayFishSketch has been in the works for the last several weeks (sorry for being so absent) but it’s a yellow perch (Perca flavescens) on a matcha bowl I threw on the wheel!

My #SundayFishSketch this week is a yellow boxfish, one of my favorite to paint because of their fun shape! Always good to practice depth with watercolors!

My #SundayFishSketch is a red emperor snapper inspired by the game Finspan!

My friends had a housewarming party and had us paint on their wall as part of it! So my #SundayFishSketch this week is a brook trout blessing the walls of Kate and Trey’s new home ❤️

Being from Minneapolis, these past few weeks have been especially heavy. I’ve been painting fish again to calm my nerves. Here is a tangerine darter in breeding colors for my first #SundayFishSketch in a while.

An arctic char for the #SciArtSeptember Borealis theme and a late #SundayFishSketch. I tried an experiment where I painted with only two colors.

So, not only is my kid's healthcare illegal for doctors to provide him in the state we live in, he can no longer be treated out of state and risks losing access to the evidence backed peer reviewed medication that has changed his life for the better because we are ruled by monsters and cowards

Decline of whitefish in Lake Michigan sparks fears that the fish might disappear The commercial harvest of the fish has declined nearly 90 percent since 1999 #GreatLakes www.wpr.org/news/decline...

Happy #SundayFishSketch! I finally finished my red shiner in honor of pride! Red shiners are a common baitfish which has led to them becoming invasive in areas where bait buckets have been dumped. A reminder to not dump your baitfish into the water when you are fishing!

Happy Pride month! For #SundayFishSketch, here is my work in progress of a red shiner, whose iridescence felt very on theme!

I finally finished my painting of my golden tilefish (Lopholatilus chamaeleonticeps), for #SundayFishSketch! These fish have a unique burrowing behavior and their age of sexual maturity has been significantly impacted by overfishing.

Been playing with some variations of my linocut from last #SundayFishSketch! #sciart

Early #SundayFishSketch today! I tried my hand at linocut for the first time on this lake sturgeon!

I forgot to post my #SundayFishSketch for mothers day! It is a Nile tilapia which is a mouth brooding mother!

#SundayFishSketch: Line art for my eventual watercolor of a native Mexico fish, the golden tilefish (Lopholatilus chamaeleonticeps)

Gotta love spring in bloom :)

Consistently late, my Easter #SundayFishSketch is a foxface rabbitfish!

My #SundayFishSketch is a bit late once again but here is an orange spotted sunfish for the fishy theme of what I’d like to catch this year

I’m ashamed to be so late after requesting this theme! My postage stamp #SundayFishSketch is in honor of archerfish and their perfect aim!

Quick #SundayFishSketch of a boomerang triggerfish. Trying to work on quick pen sketches to focus on practice over perfection

@lampichthys.bsky.social A while ago, there was a “design your own fishy stamp” theme for #SundayFishSketch. What are your thoughts on bringing that one back?

Finished my blue spotted ribbontail ray in time for #SundayFishSketch this week! These friends hide during the day and form groups at night to feed in shallow areas during rising tides. #SciArt

Ending the week with a little motivation from our office mural. 💙 We hope you all have a great weekend. 🦈

Apparently deadlines elude me, so here are the beginnings of a Blue spotted ribbontail ray for #SundayFishSketch

for #SundayFishSketch this week, I stuck to the #FishyTheme and drew a pumpkinseed sunfish via a single line drawing! This was my first single line drawing ever and it was pretty tough. #sciart

Day 23 of #birbfest: a male yellow-headed blackbird. Don’t worry #teamfish, I haven’t converted. I’m just trying to get better at drawing!

No happiness challenge day. I was busy being sad about being called a “dumb b****” at the gas station on my way home. Please enjoy this WIP of penguins based on footage from Myeongho Seo instead

My happiness challenge has been going strong with 620 photos since fall of 2021, but I’m going to start posting it here as well as instagram, in case I decide to get off of Meta platforms

I forgot to post this snowcap hummingbird from Day 10 of #birbfest

For good luck in the new year, I drew an Asian arowanna (Scleropages formosus) for #SundayFishSketch I’m trying to learn to paint scales better in watercolors. This was my first attempt in a while

I’ve been in a depressive rut so I finished my first fish in a while! A mediterranean banded killifish (Aphanius fasciatus) for an off theme #SundayFishSketch

For #SundayFishSketch, I have a work in progress Mediterranean killifish (Aphanius fasciatus)

Some extra art for you today, for #SundayFishSketch American Eel, migrating to the Sargasso Sea. #sciart

Art drawn by people who very rarely make art and think they are “bad at art” is 1000x cooler than AI art. It’s life-affirming. It’s often unexpected. I cannot overemphasize how much I love when people just go for it. You do not need the machine for this human endeavor.

My #SundayFishSketch this week is a bit of a different medium than I’m used to!

Happy anniversary to #SundayFishSketch and @Lampichthys. Here is my Opah! Better late than never!!

The sky last night 💫

Here's my take for this week's #SundayFishSketch .. my overlay on a photo of a fossil Pycnodontiformes. #SciArt

Rene's #SundayFishSketch prompt for us was "Fossil" so here's my take on Aquilolamna milarcae, the strange Late Cretaceous shark that mirrored modern-day manta rays! Definitely one of the more "Studio Ghibli"-looking sharks out there. I would hop on this Sharkbus, wouldn't you? 🦑🐡🧪

It's #sundayfishsketch time again. The brief this week was "Fossil". Since I find evolutionary biology so fascinating, I really wanted to draw a "missing link," so here is #Tiktaalik. This one pushed me technically to try new things to get it right.

For #SundayFishSketch this week, I started my fish on the 7th with the #Inktober theme “stream”. So here is a brook trout!

#SciArtSeptember Word 20: Enchanted In the Romanian fairytale The Enchanted Pig, a Prince is disguised by witch and must be saved by his love. The ‘animal as bridegroom’ is a common story-form across many cultures.

For #SciArtSeptember prompt glitter, an animal whose common name comes from its glittery exterior like a sequinned jumpsuit, the truly ornate Elvis worm! In 2020, scientists discovered 4 types of scale worms, with shimmering lavender, blue, & orange exoskeletons, which looked like they were wearing
