Description (2020), 19" x 13.5", pastels and pencil on paper

Been catching these beauties all summer in Florida, so I decided to draw one. However, this is a girl crab (red claws) and I let all of them go, so they can make more baby crabs. The boys have just blue crab tips like the rest of their bodies. 

Really loved working on bringing out the hard and shiny surfaces on her carapace and the structures of the fine hairs on her legs.
