207-LeopardSharkJellyfish-Morgret
This was a commissioned oil painting specifically created to include a spotted leopard shark and jelly fish. I added glow in the dark pigments to the wet paint after I photographed it so that the clients, Robert and Ginger Morgret, would enjoy a special effect. Leopard Sharks typically do not grow very large. I read that they do not have the scary teeth that most sharks have. I included teeth in this painting because my clients wanted the shark to appear more ferocious.
