The ocean is an amazingly beautiful, raw, unpredictable environment and it’s crazy to think these kinds of anomalies have been occurring every second of every day since the beginning of it all.
Sketching on the beach! I’ve been overdoing it with my hand RSI lately so I haven’t drawn for a while, but this was nice.
[ID: A pale hand holding up a sketchbook in front of an ocean and rocky beach in the late afternoon. The page holds a pencil drawing of a larger section of the beach, with a seawall, hurricane break, and telephone poles. The ocean and sky are roughed in with a light blue brushpen, and the plastic covered wire tethers holding down unseen telephone poles are yellow, but the rest is just scribbly pencil with smudging for shading.]
Took a break from packing to paint a quick ocean! :)
[ID: Two pictures of a traditional watercolor and acrylic painting of a blue-green ocean. In the first image, a set of watercolor paints, a tube of white acrylic, and a few pens and pencils are visible.]
Egg-yolk jellyfish are a beautiful jellyfish found in the waters along the West Coast. Hitchhikers like crabs have been found catching a ride inside their bell (the umbrella shaped top)- which is something I REALLY want to see!
My hands have decided to cooperate today so I’m taking some time to work on more Salish sea Nudibranchs while I listen to crooked kingdom! Did anyone else binge Shadow and Bone on Netflix?
