As you can see in this post, when I drew the flower hat jelly, the rough sketch was already completed. The moon jelly is an animal I've drawn often before, and I was able to finish it quickly because I had a clear, finished image in my head.
Color thumbnail~ I ultimately chose pink/blue, but it would have been fun to draw it in orange/cyan too.
This is the last moon jelly I drew. (2022)
The first moon jelly I drew had much smaller eyes.
The eyes are bigger in this drawing.
I don't know why, but I think big eyes are cute these days 😂 Some jellyfish have their eyes modified to be larger than in the sketch.
In the final step, I darkened the sparkly pink stars a bit, as they were too bright and seemed to take the viewer's attention away from the jellyfish.
This is the version uploaded to social media, but after drawing the picture, I noticed some areas that needed to be fixed.
I fixed the negative space of the jellyfish on the bottom right because it bothered me a bit.
The wallpapers posted here and the modified versions will be uploaded to the store later.
Thank you!

Oh, the cycle of nature is truly amazing. Sad for the moon jelly, but good for the seagull :) I think orange and cyan would be good to use in other drawings later! Thank you.

I love your moon jellies 🪼 we recently had a storm and many washed up on the beach 😢 but there were lots of fish and pelicans eating them so they supported the circle of life 😊❤️🪼❤️🪼 I think the orange and cyan colour scheme was nice too.
