Description More work for my thesis. This one is about many animals who use the "-fish" naming convention but, zoologically speaking, are not fish for a variety of reasons (different orders/classes/etc). Examples of this are: jellyfish (cnidarians), devilfish/giant pacific octopus (mollusk), cuttlefish (mollusk) and starfish (echinoderm).

TL;DR I'm a huge science geek and like to paint cute animals.

24x36" acrylic/modeling paste/paper/ink/pen/probably other stuff I can't remember on canvas.

Huh, I never actually took the time to notice that before. I mean, -fish animals that aren't fish aren't at all. XD Awesome work as usual! I like those mollusks!
