  • The image depicts a sketch of a zebra shark, painted with acrylic markers. The shark is captured from an above angle. The shark is tan in color, and covered in black dots. Its pattern is almost leopard-like, and in some parts of the world, it is referred to as a leopard shark due to this. Three brown lines run down the back of the shark, sectioning its body. The shark has a wide body in the front, which tapers to a narrow, blunt tail. The shark appears to be in motion, its tail swishing to the side. Its small eyes aren't visible from this angle. The shark swims towards the bottom-right of the image.

  • A watercolor painting of a louvar fish by LivInSeas. The louvar has a torpedo shape with a beluga-like rounded head. There's a shaded crease where this rounded head meets the face. The louvar is orange-silver, with the orange color reflecting more from the top of the fish, and the grey-silver color across the midbody/bottom of the fish. The pectoral and caudal (tail) fins are bright blood-orange/red. The dorsal and anal fins stretch from almost the tail of the fish to about 1/3 uup the body, and are much lighter in color, with only faint red fin rays and grey in between each ray. The pelvic fin is very small, and a similar faint reddish-grey to the dorsal and anal fins. The lips of the fish are reddish, and look a bit parrot-like. The eye is smaller, and surrounded by reddish coloration.
