Six feet of pure Nightmare Fuel! - The Humboldt Squid 🦑
Was a bit tricky getting the lighting right since most photos of them have a camera light involved but I’m happy with how its turned out. I recommend watching footage of these guys they’re quite terrifying!
I will post a process video tomorrow! ✍️

I had the opportunity to be a part of Oceanic 31, a project involving 31 artists contributing a piece of artwork illustrating 1 of 31 species of shark or ray, for the campaign to protect sharks in international waters. Shark populations decline every year due to overfishing and finning. Sharks play an important role in maintaining a healthy ecosystem in our oceans, it is paramount that we protect them in order to save our oceans.
The Porbeagle shark is considered to be relatively shy, rarely being seen, and spending time close to the shore and amongst kelp forests. Kelp forests have always interested me because of their density, broad ecosystems, and otherworldly quality. It was an easy choice to illustrate the Porbeagle shark above these dense areas searching for prey. After studying this shark for the past few months I’ve grown an appreciation for it, which is why it saddens me to know, like many sharks, that it is vulnerable to extinction due to being hunted for its meat and fins.

Thank you to @thesharktrust for allowing me to be apart of this project!

Wasn’t a huge fan of painting the foliage..but another fun paint! if anyone knows what Crab this is please let me know! ;)
there’s something about the way the foliage in the background blends with the water that fascinates me it’s incredibly beautiful but equally eerie!
