Artist's notes:
 The
line art version of the Chambered Nautilus drawing was completed
in 2004 and the digital tinting added in 2007. I think these
cool cephalopods are so primitive looking! They're really
unlike anything else I've seen.

Information about the Chambered Nautilus:
The Chambered Nautilus is a mollusk, related to the octopus,
squid, clam and snail. They are found in the Indo-Pacific
area and live primarily near the bottom in waters up to
1500 feet deep. At night they rise closer to the surface.
Nautilus pompilius can grow to a length of about 8 inches.
The animal creates chambers that increase in size as it
moves to occupy the outermost chamber of its shell. An adult
may have about 30 of these chambers. The smooth thin shell
spirals and has a pattern of brown and white.
