This is a handsome little freshwater mussel called a deertoe (Truncilla truncata) they range in color from this aqua blue to green to almost red-orange. This is my first attempt to illustrate one of these beautiful creatures but I am sure it wont be my last.
wow the colours are amazing! You definitively should do more!!! love it!
