@rachel.brooks.art: Guess the shark? ๐ฉโโ๏ธ๐ฆ These sharks can have a wide but patchy distribution ๐ Juveniles can mostly be found on the bottom around shallow reefs, seagrass beds and mangroves ๐ชธ Older sharks are more likely to be found on deeper reefs and rocky areas where they often shelter during the day. They feed on small fish, stingrays and invertebrates ๐ฆ They show strong site fidelity and often come back to the same site to mate ๐ฆ They are ovoviviparous, meaning fertilised eggs hatch inside the female ๐ฃ Sharks are definitely my favourite subject to stipple, and I have an idea for a big shark piece in the works which I can't wait to get started on! . . . . . #sharks #shark #sharkart #sharkartist #sharkpainting #savesharks #sharkconservation #nurseshark #maldives #bahamas #sharkdiving #bimini #penandink #stippling #oceanartist #oceanart #artivism #artforchange #artforconservation #scientificillustration #marinescience #marinebiology #sharkresearch #girlsthatfreedive #girlsthatscuba #sharklover #sharkdrawing
