amongst the coral



Remember how I've been looking to all things aquatic? At last I have something to show you. I'm constantly finding new ways to use gold, & in this one I decided to paint the coral with gold to emphasize a precious quality about them. Some of the fish are quite shy & some are simply curious, but all of them are based on real species.

    The colors are so vibrant! It reminds me of snorkeling in tropical waters with gorgeous fish swimming all around!
