Go fish

Here is a painting of some fish I started while I was in the Caribbean (yes, cruel sentence to write while we are "enjoying" this weather).  The one in the middle is a Queen Triggerfish, I think, with many liberties taken with color.  At first I thought I was overdoing it, and then I went snorkeling and realized some of my fish were rather tame!  Judi Betts taught aboard the ship and had us paint 6 x 9 in. paintings of fish.

I finished this one aboard the ship:
The fish here are a squirrelfish (punked out in different colors) and Rock Beauty.   I tried to make them smile where possible.  Unfortunately the one at the bottom left looks a bit lost.
