Description
There's some kind of terrifying beauty in sea creatures. The unusual shapes, bare colors, and glass-like translucence are suggestive of another world. Really, it is another world, down there where the only thing to break through the dark is the luminescence of animals.Yes, I know next to nothing about the deep sea. But angler fish are darn cool!
11 colors.

I love it so much!
Can I use it to make a journal skin (with all credit where it is due, of course)?

Hmmm... I think as long as you go out to create something using the elements from the piece as youΒ interpret them, that's okay! I recommend zooming in, eyedropping colours and setting up a palette... try drawing shapes you like yourself and experimenting with them for your skin. If this piece says something you like, I'm really hoping you explore that something and find how to wield it yourself. That way we're working together, using common ideas to show something individual about ourselves!
So, yeah! Go ahead, credit is fine by me, just... make some art out of it!

Thank you! It will be a while until I can get a premium account and therefore display the journal, but I'll certainly do what you advised! Perhaps I can turn it into a vector and makes some jellies to go with it.

Awesome .o. Really love the colours here, and I like the black colour for the background- further emphasises the glow on the creepy fish's face .o. Excellent!

This is one of those pictures that, once I step in to see, I cannot leave without fave-ing. Feels like I'm commiting a terrible crime doing so.

Very nice, digging the palette.
Did you know, the big angler fish are the females and they absorb/dissolve all of the much smaller males except for their reproductive organs so they can reproduce?

Thanks! I did know that, but it still gets me every time. It's so freaking creepy, but so cool at the same time.

Well I guess we know which gender rules in the dark depths of the sea *snort* But yeah, I find it absolutely fascinating as well. But then most sea life stuff is incredibly fascinating. I would love to see another like this from you, but with jelly fish.

... Jellyfish, eh? That would be challenging and fun.Β
