It’s that time of year where I barely have time to eat!  But I am still playing with food. 🙂  These pears are ripe and ready for a gourmet meal.  Oh so juicy…

Colorful Shrimp

New Mixed Media Art Painting Collage

Sharon Cummings

2014

Something a “little” different.  The lowly shrimp seems pretty uninspiring until you take a closer look at all of the beautiful lines, curves and detail in their bodies.  When I added some color, suddenly he became a lot bigger. 🙂

Colored Pencils

I cannot say I am a big fan of colored pencils, but I am glad I tried this medium. Through the process of working with pencils and pastels, I learned that I like a much slicker feel in my hands.  I have more control over inks, markers and paint.

No not “those” kind!  But now that I’ve gotten your attention, let’s take a look at this strange looking ocean creature. Crabs are decapods (ten legs) crustaceans (their skeleton is on the outside) and arthropods (they have segmented legs). Interesting FACTS:

If a crab loses a claw, it will grow back.

Males grow one larger claw.  It’s purpose is to impress female crabs rather than for attack or defense.

A crab’s teeth are in its stomach.

Crabs can be carnivores, herbivores, or omnivores.

Crabs can also be cannibals and will sometimes feed on weaker crabs of the same species.

There are 6,793 species of crabs divided into 93 families.

King Crabs are not considered true crabs.  Neither are Hermit, Porcelain, or Horseshoe Crabs.

We began on a light note, so we might as well end on one too. 🙂

Man walks into a restaurant and says, “Do you server crabs here?”

The hostess replies, “We serve everyone.  Have a seat.”
