Brenda Guiled has been painting technical illustrations of fishes since 1979, under the name Brenda Guild and Brenda Guild Gillespie. They're accurate to scale and fin-ray count. These images are published throughout Canada and internationally, by clients such as the Monterrey Bay Aquarium, the David Suzuki Foundation, the Smithsonian, as well as many smaller organizations. They're used for posters, brochures, books, maps, fish I.D. and nature guides, art prints, and more.

See http://www.chartingnature.com/gillespie.cfm for thumbnails of 150+ of Brenda's fish and shellfish illustrations. Click on a species name to see it. Contact that website for further information and to purchase prints or reproduction rights.
 
The following images use scans of her fish illustrations to create oddball, whimsical collages, which she sells as digital art prints and cards.
