This was originally a bowl with my favorite deep sea creature. When they come to the surface, they are either dying or warning of imminent disaster. See my other pottery creations at www.RHoneyPots.com

The giant oarfish (Regalecus glesne) is a species of oarfish and is the world's longest bony fish. Its shape is ribbon-like, narrow laterally, with a dorsal fin along its entire length, stubby pectoral fins, and long, oar-shaped pelvic fins, from which its common name is derived.

The Oarfish is an ocean fish that astounds marine biologists. It is very rare to see, but has been popping up more frequently in the media due to its mysterious story. Scientists are still unsure of fundamental information such as: its length, habitat depth, life span, and others. However, it is assumed that the Oarfish is the origin of the sea serpent imagery. It is suspected that sailors in history encountered Oarfish and recognized them to be sea serpents from the deep. Based on this interesting backstory, I created a print of my interpretation of an Oarfish's evolution into the sea serpent that we hear about in stories.

Christmas in the deep sea

This is a watercolor painting of a bunch of deep sea fish and animal species, including whales, squids, oarfish, and nautilus! This would be a perfect gift for fishermen, saltwater aquarists, marine biology students, or oceanography professors.
