111-3297 – Fishy fun with gel pens

Here is another evening gel pen sketch – this glass ornament (maybe Murano glass?) used to sit in my parents hallway…I remember it as a fixture in each house we lived in. When my sister packed up their house in the UK, I asked to have this keepsake. Now I am not sure where to keep it as it looks quite fragile and we have two cats!

111-3296 – Spider conch shell

I picked up a random gel pen to sketch this shell which we picked up on our trip to Palawan. According to Wikipedia this is a Lambis Lambis (common name spider conch) – a type of large sea snail. My guess is that this was a male (something to do with the direction of the anterior fingers!).
