Been a while since we've gotten the "fish as postage stamps" prompt! For #SundayFishSketch here's a yellow-wing flyingfish 花烏 Cypselurus poecilopterus 班鰭飛魚! (Thanks @seetasaur.bsky.social for reviving the theme; and congrats again to @lampichthys.bsky.social on the happy news!) #TaiwanFishes 🦑🐡🧪

Cypselurus Dragon, a sparkling ocean mystery.

#dragon #fantasyart #sculpture #art #creature #artdolls
A teal blue underwater dragon, its eyes bright yellow, its wings in shape o wide fins, its scales of tiny rhinestones. It is one-of-a-kind fantasy art doll I made of airdry clay, fabrics, faux fur and some other art supplies. The creature has found its home.
