I have been studying Goldfish for well over a year. My goal was to figure out the shimmers and glimmers of these beauties. Goldfish have a unique shape and they come in many sizes and colors. So after slogging through numerous photos, books and other paintings I was ready to paint these fish myself!
I created a background that has the colors of water with plant, light and sunshine affecting the shades. Fun.After sketching the fish, loosely with a pencil onto the canvas, the moment arrived. All of my theories and techniques came together in a perfect storm and 5 Goldfish appeared on the canvas..
Yes I am joyous, I am happy to look upon my canvas of Goldfish, finally!Goldfish #1.... 2'x2' Acrylic on canvas.
