Year Of Painting Koi

     
This was painted for our Painting Friends Forum Year of Painting Challenge for June. I did this wet on wet with just a slight sketch to put the fish in.   After that I just dropped the colors in.  I like my blues and greens but would like a little more umph with my golds.  This was a fun challenge and I hope those who view it are pleased with the results.   Thanks for viewing and commenting, I appreciate all of you.

  1. Gorgeous, simple and "watery"--I think the orange is perfect! And the white fish below the surface has a beautiful silvery sheen!
