Koi Ahoy!

I love painting the abstract shapes in water! There is something magical in how the eye can piece these shapes together and make it into a comprehensive, understandable painting. I will have to do more of these for I am seduced by the process!

Thank you so much Nancy! I had so much fun with this one I will be working on another, (larger) one in the near future. Wish me luck!

I love this painting. I am nuts about all the shapes in the water.

Thank you Mary! Yes, the shapes were so much fun! I just love painting water...it seems you just can't go wrong for it's always changing. Thanks for popping in and taking a look!
