This was a several year old sketch I decided to color this weekend. Anemones are interesting predators and every time I go to the beach I look for them and feed them mussels or crabs. I felt guilty about this afterward, but while doing image research for this pic I discovered that practically every YouTube video featuring a wild anemone has someone feeding them things -- often crabs.
I'm not sure how I arrived at the idea of an anthropomorphic female sea anemone, but these things happen. Anemones swallow their prey whole after paralyzing it with their stinging tentacles, and later expel bones, scales, and other indigestibles like swim fins and snorkels. 83

Didn't Nemo live in an anemone? That doesn't look like Nemo's house. XD

That was a carpet anemone, which doesn't look anything like the green sea anemone on which this is based. 83
