Nothing new last week because I've been mostly coding for a rehaul of my website. There are plans for merfolk imagery coming in the month, so here are some studies of aquatic life I've been doing: Greenland shark, frilled shark, ox-eyed oreo, and a feathered star.
When it comes to distinctions between life on earth and out of this world, we have a standard for what we visualize to be normalcy for earth. I've always found it fascinating that the characteristics we imagine to be alien could be found in the depths of our planet's oceans.
