Better Know a Fish! / 曉得多魚！

I've just dropped the price on these because literally zero orders is usually a bad sign 😅 canopyrobin.etsy.com

thank you 💚😊

i just remembered that some people got genuinely upset when i pointed out that live action little mermaid's sebastian would die underwater

It looks wonderful!! So much character 🤩

This was supposed to be the #SundayFishSketch ...
The bumby snailfish is refusing to get painted at the moment :/ ... I may return to it later or try again.

Black pen on paper drawing of a deer and a lobster riding in the dish of the Voyager spacecraft. The lobster's antennae are tangled with the antlers of the deer, who looks disgruntled.

Sometimes the prompts are unexpectedly compatible. I'd never realized before that lobsters, spacecraft, and deer ALL have antennae! #Inktober #invertober2025 #SpacetoberChallenge

Ink and watercolor sketch of a fish.

I spent a couple hours last night in a white sucker consume talking to families about how they're not a "trash fish." Here's a quick sketch of a chonk for #SundayFishSketch

A relief sculpture in painted, varnished polymer clay of a leaping tarpon, a large, silvery herringlike gamefish. it is mounted on a small (approx. 4" x 5") chunk of white illustration board, & labeled in fading black ink: Tarpon / Megalops atlantica. Signed with my initials "KG 94" in lower left corner

i didn't find my Kelly Gruber baseball card but look what i DID find in my Card File of Wonders (the card file is itself made of cardboard, and is falling apart) : a ~31 year old #SundayFishSketch, a mini-sculpture based on a Frank Stick painting

Having a little chat with my past self right now

Pen drawing of a Coregonus kiyi. This thing has HUGE eyes

For #SundayFishSketch this week, an in-progress Coregonus kiyi. I’m working on an activity for the general public on why we use genetics to distinguish between species, and my current study system of ciscoes is more than a little notorious for being hard to morphologically ID reliably

Probably NC Sea Grant? @ncseagrant.bsky.social

Anyone here currently doing invasive fish work in NC, particularly in central NC? I’ve got some people that caught an Amazon red-tailed catfish and have it alive in a tank. If I was still in that area, I’d be right over there, but alas, I’m not

Horizontal photo of a crayon sketch of a baby gar

I know we've been eagerly waiting for some happy news to come out of the #LAMPLab but in the meantime, here is a baby gar for #SundayFishSketch! (Thanks to #GarLab for the reference gar!) (Also, first fish in the new sketchbook!) 🦑🐡🧪

Thank you!!!! 😊

This is awesome!!

Would you guess that I drew some of these in between gartic phone rounds

Graphite and watercolor quick study of panda corydora by the artist Dhiyanah Hassan. The fish has a unique shape, kinda between an oval and a diamond from its side profile. It has the catfish whiskers near its mouth and black markings around its eyes and a black patch near its tail which give it its common name, panda corydora.

Squeezed in a lil #SundayFishSketch. Panda corydora study, graphite and watercolors. 10mins.

What a beautiful sketchbook!

Whooo, congrats!!!

It's all crayon or color pencil, or archival pen ink, so very little rub-off!

And that's a wrap for this sketchbook! That's 110 pages drawn over 2+ years featuring ~206 completed #SundayFishSketch and #SciArtSeptember works. Shoutout to the #TeamFish #SciArt community—especially @lampichthys.bsky.social and @lizlagomorph.bsky.social. Here's to many more notebooks to come! 🐡🦑🧪

Long story short, loricariid (suckermouth) catfishes living in fast flowing, rocky rivers have thick, collagenous lips compared to those in slow-flowing, muddy rivers, which helps them hold under the flow. Sometimes, art can lead to science instead of the other way around… #SciComm
