Description Here's a scene I drew a while ago from the Devonian period. A Cladoselache circles above a reef of colonial corals and crinoids, where little Hollardops merocristata trilobites scurry about. Orthocones and Antiarchs swim in the backdrop.

I simply did this as a "I was bored/just for fun" kind of thing, so it really isn't my best. Plus I really wanted to put up some new artwork.

As a side note, it isn't likely that Cladoselache and Hollardops co-existed; the latter is from the Esmian, while the former is Upper Devonion. I should have checked on that before I starting scribbling away, but I have my own Hollardops specimen, so I drew from that

I don't particularly like the scan of this either; I may try it again later.

I really like the light filtering down through the water.
