A cartoony guide to the Marine Fish and Invertebrates of Los Angeles!

I am continuing the series of LA Native Wildlife! As with my native reptiles and amphibians poster, I cross referenced iNaturalist with the species listed on Cabrillo Marine Aquarium's website to get as accurate a list of species as I could of marine critters you can find off the coast of Los Angeles. These are not meant to be completely scientifically accurate, but hopefully its enough information for you to recognize the species when you see them in the wild (or at least, get in the right ballpark)! I will be selling this as an 11x17in poster at upcoming conventions this year, along with the reptile one, so keep your eyes peeled for that announcement! PS. You may notice the lack of marine mammals in this poster... because I'm also planning on making a dedicated mammals poster and they will be included there! Stay tuned :)

do you ever think about how if you dive into the ocean and go deeper and deeper you will pass through layers of darker and darker blue until everything is black and cold and the pressure will be so intense that it will kill you without protection but if you keep going you will find little glowing specks of light, and if you go up into the sky and go higher and higher you will pass through layers of darker and darker blue until everything is black and cold and the pressure will be so intense that it will kill you without protection but if you keep going you will find little glowing specks of light

sometimes a post makes you get out of bed at 230am to spend a quick hour on something like this

[Image description: A color image in portrait orientation. The background transitions smoothly from a starfield on black at the top, through dark blue, medium blue, lighter blue, then back to medium, dark, and another starfield at the bottom. In the very center is a black silhouette of a human figure, appearing to float on its back as on the surface of water. Above it in the blue "sky" area are a curved, thin white line like the contrail of a jet aircraft, and two small black silhouettes of seabirds. Below in the deep dark blue, just before the starfield, are some silhouettes of fish. /end description]

I invite you to slow down and ink this piece with me! Inking for me is so therapeutic. Sure, when you mess up a lone it is frustrating, but then you just move on and sometimes you just nail it. I will try to walk you through the process of this Sinnoh legends painting that I'm currently working on so stay tuned for more! This is going to be part of a new exciting thing I'm working on so I really hope it all works out!

Find me and my art elsewhere!
