Beautiful painting..lovely details, color & light..especially on the black moor
Thanks Nina... Glad you like it :)
Stunning. The colors, shading, as well as the tone of the artwork all jell well together. I love how the darker fish stands out. He really makes the picture. He looks so sad though. I hope the other fish will befriend him soon. Anyway, beautiful artwork Chris.
Hi Calliope - Yes, he's sad.... for good reason: as a 'bit of an outsider', he feels rejected by the veiltails - though, as you say.... he 'hopes' they'll invite him to play soon.... Thanks :)
BEAUTIFUL PIECE!!!
Thank you JUICE! Good of you to drop by :)
Love this too!!! how did I miss it last time? Awesome :)
Thanks Kim! Glad you like this one :)
Gorgeous colors!
Thanks :) Really appreciated !!
Wow, beautiful!
A outstanding job!!!!!
Thank you :)))
My first impression was precisely what you described in your post to miamia....I like the way your arty brain works ;) VLP
Thanks for reading into that, Viktoria! For me (at least), the idea comes first... the image-making is almost a secondary kind of thing ;)))
sweet
Thanks miamia
The intention was nver 'sweetness' here - more to show the feeling of isolation and depth of quality in relation to skittishness and superficiality;)
Wonderful piece, the fish are amazing and I love the depth of the piece.
Thanks for your kind comments, roaldrhody - really much appreciated :)))
I love the Asian feel of this piece... of course, I would!
And so you ought! I've always held a deep fascination for east asian art - more particularly that of the Edo period, so guess that comes out in a lot of my work stylistically - and of course painting carp (or in this case goldfish) it felt so 'right' to lend them that feel :)
this is absolutely gorgeus!
Thank you so much, himitsuhana - I'm glad you like it!
Marvelous work!
Thank you Valerie :)))
This is beautiful. The colors of the black Moor are stunning. Makes me thing of Beta fishes. Nice work!
