I originally created this Dory & Marlin vs the Anglerfish painting for an art challenge. The prompt was "trap". Not sure why but I thought of an Anglerfish first. They are rather interesting when you read about them. Their name comes from their characteristic mode of predation, in which they use a modified fin ray that can be luminescent acts as a lure for other fish.

After I finished the Anglerfish part of the painting I found it to be a bit frightening so I added Dory & Marlin for a more whimsical touch.
