Description Isn't that one of the greatest scientific names you've ever heard? I love it. A quickish zebra shark, done for my good friend and fellow former marine educator ~jesspark , whose love for these cute little sharks is unmatched.

Fantastically well done! I've always had difficulty with painting water webbing, but you've done incredibly realistic work with this! The actual zebra shark is actually very acurate as well, excellent job!

Jen,your talent for rendering elasmobranchs is as great as your talent for rendering cetaceans(I especially like the interplay between shadow&light in this one!)Agree with all the other comments.

Oh my lord. I was like, mah this is just another photo, but let's keep it in the inbox becaus it's a nice shark. Then I clicked it and saw the username 'Orcasaurus'. And yes, then it came to me that this was a painting. And what a panting! It's so amazing, the colours are very natural and I adore your ability to make your digital works look like they were made with water colours A stunning painting once again, will make me look twice at any sharks and whales coming past my inbox, just to make sure it isn't a painting of your I'm clicking away
