Built for the hunt. Caught in the wrong net.

Crowned Bycatch captures the striking profile of the Scalloped Hammerhead, one of the ocean’s most recognizable and threatened sharks. Its distinctive hammer-shaped head isn’t just for show, it helps the shark detect prey by spreading its sensory organs across a wider area, giving it an extraordinary ability to locate food hidden beneath the seafloor.

Fun fact: Scalloped Hammerheads are known to form massive schools numbering in the hundreds, sometimes even thousands, making them one of the most social shark species in the world. They also won’t hesitate to prey on other sharks when the opportunity arises.

Despite their remarkable adaptations, Scalloped Hammerheads have suffered severe population declines due to fishing pressure and bycatch, often becoming unintended victims of fisheries targeting other species.

This acrylic painting honors a shark whose crown-shaped silhouette has become a symbol of both evolutionary ingenuity and the urgent need for ocean conservation.

What is the difference between Open and Limited Edition Prints?

Open Edition Prints are high-quality poster prints produced in-house using professional inkjet printers with premium dye-based inks on quality paper. These are an affordable way to enjoy the artwork and are not part of a numbered series.
Limited Edition Prints are giclée prints, created by a professional fine art printer using museum-grade archival inks and papers. Giclée printing offers exceptional color accuracy, depth, and longevity, designed to meet the standards of galleries and collectors. Each limited edition is individually numbered, hand-signed, and includes hand-drawn embellishments along with a Certificate of Authenticity, making them extra special and collectible.

Are your originals or prints framed?

No. All artwork is sold unframed unless otherwise noted. This gives you the freedom to choose a frame that best fits your space and style.

Why do your prints come with an additional ¼ to ½ inch border?

Prints include an extra ¼ to ½ inch border to allow for easier handling, matting, and framing. The border gives something for the mat to rest on without cutting off any of the picture. The border size may vary slightly depending on the artwork and format. If you prefer a borderless print, please contact me.

What paper do you use?

We use acid-free, archival-quality paper to ensure your art lasts. Depending on the piece, whether it is an original or print, we may use watercolor paper, Pastelmat, Bristol, Fine Art Papers by Epson, Hahnemuehle, or other premium surfaces suited to the medium.

How will the artwork be shipped?

Artwork will be shipped either flat or rolled in a sturdy tube, depending on the size, to ensure it arrives safely and in pristine condition.
