Cool! Post it if you do Stepan, that'd look awesome 👌
I've attached one of my little princess, she's a beaut. A galaxy spot black diamond hybrid stingray, she's nearly 3 years old and growing, and is a right little madam, especially if she doesn't have her food lol Uniquely patterned may be a good pic for you to do sometime. Her spots are white and body black it's sand substrate and juvenile colouration which make her spots appear beige type.
That would be awesome 👌. If I draw up a small selection, positioning of various subjects from my communities, with a backdrop outlay.. I can commission that work, or though I'm not sure what your rate would be and overall picture. We can discuss at that point if you're happy with what I put to you? Have a bash of the stingay (Venus) when you can and we can look to the commissioned 'Communal' one. Sound good? So long as you'd send me the work via mail services and are able to send such to the UK if you're elsewhere in the world :) Just let me know of Ray when you can, whether you'd like to receive a commission order as above, and a preferred method of contact than open thread of course so we can update etc.
That's really cool. I inherited a bunch of art supplies from my grandma including water coloring actually all about water coloring. I just don't know what to paint tbh. Writers block or I just get to overwhelmed.
Back in school I could draw whatever tf I wanted. I just flipped the paper over to a blank page and went at it without a thought😆 now that I know I'm not blowing anything off and actually got to think, it's tough😞. Just kno you've inspired me. I'm writing this as I sit here working with my 90 year old grandpa (her husband)🖤 Thank you!
Thanks! I try. My kids are heavily involved. In fact we have a tank day where all of my classes do maintenance. They do like doing the work on the tanks
Looks awesome! Honestly what Id do is try and put them on a t-shirt. Other fish nerds will talk with you, and people who juat love the art will like it too.
So beautiful, please do my swordtail, if that’s fine with you

I love how well you captured the soulless eyes of fish
Thank you so much! I really do try to fill the eyes up with life!
Wow… all of these are fucking amazing!!! The hillstream is my favorite 😍
Thank you so much!! The hillstream was actually a commission for someone!!
It’s so cute and pretty!! The texture of the paper is lovely with it
Thank you!!
damn, looks like it's straight from a biologist/explorer's notebook
Thank you so much I appreciate that!!
Very nice OP! I wish I had your talent

Maybe you could do a great big Blue Umbee, if you were inclined :) Sell paintings online of various species.. Nice work 👏 👍
I actually do sell! And I can most definitely do that fish!

That's really cool. I inherited a bunch of art supplies from my grandma including water coloring actually all about water coloring. I just don't know what to paint tbh. Writers block or I just get to overwhelmed.
I get that so much I actually hate it 😭, whenever I’m trying to sketch I just can’t

Thank you I’m really glad I did!! I myself run out of inspiration!
Do you do any salt water stuff? I'm sitting here imagining what a mandarin goby would look like
I don’t think I’ve tried yet but I so can!!
These are beautiful. Is there somewhere I can follow your art?
I just started an instagram!!! @stepansart

I really like the neon tetra ?$
It’s actually not for sale 😭 it’s part of my sketchbook I was just trying out new paints
Amazing talent!! That would have looked great in my classroom as I have a bunch of tanks. One tank has over 100 tetras including g 25 neons
Oh my goodness that’s incredible! I get you’re an awesome teacher
Thanks! I try. My kids are heavily involved. In fact we have a tank day where all of my classes do maintenance. They do like doing the work on the tanks
I remember when I went to school my teacher had a big tank but in poor condition, with all the fish dead 😭
Very nice!
I love them!
Thank you!!

These are beautiful! What paint do you use if you don’t mind me asking?
Guache and watercolors!
Those are so good. At first, I legit thought that was a goldfish with a weird hole through it. Really good art :)
Thank you!!
Looks awesome! Honestly what Id do is try and put them on a t-shirt. Other fish nerds will talk with you, and people who juat love the art will like it too.
Oh my goodness that’s an awesome idea!

I honestly thought I was looking at a real fish before I saw the title! (On the tetra specifically)
