For this week's #SundayFishSketch I chose to focus on how far-reaching plastic pollution is and drew a snailfish swimming past a plastic bag at the bottom of the Mariana Trench
A couple days late for #SundayFishSketch . But happy birthday to the founder Dr. Rene P. Martin. Repost of a hatchetfish I liked for the deep sea theme.
Bit abstract today and waiting for the background to dry.
Could turn out rubbish but having fun.
#SundayFishSketch (?) in process
How much plastic fishing tackle is lost over a year? Whats the impact? Take a moment and pick it up/pack it out. #SundayFishSketch #EarthDay2024
Happy almost Earth Day! 🌎
I chose a bluegill for this weeks #sundayfishsketch theme. Marine fishes aren’t the only ones impacted by plastic pollution.
I drew a yellow striped cardinalfish (Ostorhinchus cyanosoma) #SundayFishSketch for the EarthDay plastic theme
Late night #SundayFishSketch . Tried out some pixel art!
The theme this week is 'Fish affected by plastic pollution'. It is not uncommon to find sharks, such as this Bull shark, with plastic rings caught around their heads, injuring/ deforming the sharks as they grow. 🦈
The Blue Shark (Prionace glauca) representing the #SundayFishSketch #EarthDay #fishytheme “imperiled by plastic.” According to research, they’re a marine species of high concern due to their threatened status, vulnerability to overfishing, and frequent plastic ingestion.
Monday is #EarthDay 2024 and the commitment this year is focused on reduction of wasteful plastics. The #SundayFishSketch #fishytheme echos this desire and asks that you illustrate fishes ‘imperiled by plastic’ in the hopes of forwarding EarthDay’s impactful statement. #sciart
For 'fishes imperiled by plastics' #EarthDay #SundayFishSketch , I was inspired by the friendly VisitPalau reps I met Friday. Palau is a leader in fighting plastic pollution, and 'mesekuuk'—the Takinged word for Acanthurus xanthopterus—are a Palauan symbol of action thru unity!
An anglerfish for Dr. Rene P. Martin birthday! All of the best <3
