#SundayFishSketch
Oyster Toadfish - Opsanus Tau Tailspot Blenny - Ecsenius Stigmatura I recently set up a twitter account ( https://twitter.com/arik_burniston ), and came across this awesome weekly sketch called #SundayFishSketch I want to get more into sciArt/scientific illustration whilst also leaving my mammalian comfort zone so this was a perfect kick up the backside. Not only that, but I'm also only doing it traditonally so I'm learning a lot about how to use my coloured and inktense pencils which have sat in a shoe box for almost three years now. My next step will be to learn how to use watercolours and - probably more importantly - how to get rid of grain in photographed and scanned images. Because those full res images are an eye-sore right now haha. But for now, here are my first few attempts - an Oyster Toadfish and a Tailspot Blenny.
