This is a strong composition Fish painting that uses an acrylic pour technique for the water and fins, and traditional oils for the fish bodies and face. A friend posted a picture and I loved the striking contrast, and composition. He gave me permission to paint it and I put my voice into the painting, using oils and pouring on this large piece.
One of the things I really liked is how there are different kinds of fish in this social shoal. It’s always better to go from darkness to light when you have friends to make the journey with. Upon closer inspection, there is a lot of metallic silver and gold that glimmer in different viewing angles.

This third series, infuses metallic (gold, silver, bronze, and or copper) into the fish, and speck in the background. The deep reds make this fish pop. I continue to refine my signature technique of acrylic pouring and detailing out with oil traditional paints. The dark background creates a focal point that carries the viewer more deeply into the vivid colors of the fish. My consistent theme in all my paintings remains true; to use colors to symbolize a variety of emotions, and truths, to bring about calmness that inspires tranquility.
