Red Fish

Ah, slightly different. This fish, although cut from origami paper, is mounted directly onto the panel. No intervening layer of paper here.

The background, as usual, is painted with layers of acrylic paint. I've used intense colors but applied in a soft, watery style, making this background really interesting. Looks a little like underwater plants, doesn't it?

I've picked out some awesome frames for this series. The fish will be on display at the two upcoming shows this month: http://lifeneedsart.blogspot.com/2009/11/come-see-me-at-these-art-fairs.html
