Koi


The other day i posted a pic of this with fish blocked in with opaque  white.  This is the next step.   I was planning to experiment with gesso and Citrosolve on the background. But theres something kind of fresh and simple about the way it looks now.  I think I will leave it alone.

I can overwork a piece if Im not careful.  And right now during this pandemic, with plenty of time on our hands,  its tempting to keep pushing a piece.  

Sometimes less is more. Sometimes not.
