Taeniura lymma
Hoare's image of Taeniura lymma is similar in appearence to a fidler ray and features a decorated disc-like body. The artist has used irredescent blue against a deep brown to capture spots on the upper side of the ray. There is no indication of the relative size of the creature, yet the work is precise and scientific in appearence. Firstly sketched in pencil, the artist has used detailed anatomical illustration to represent unusual features. Close attention has been paid to individual anatomical characteritics, especially around the eye area. Overall, the work appears exact and has realistic qualities, which is testament to the artist's ability to use watercolour and to represent items with accuracy. However, there is some proportional distortion which imposes naivity on the work.
