Hawaiian Fish


The watercolor painting of Hawaiian fish is completed. I’m currently working on the identification chart for it. I’ll take it to be photographed as a 4×5 transparency, which is then scanned at a very high resolution for the possibility of future giclee prints. This errand, however, will have to wait until our current wet weather is over. (I once had a watercolor damaged when a single raindrop made it into the plastic covering on the way to the photographer’s studio.)

I’m not quite sure what the title will be. Perhaps “Hawaiian Fish All the Way Down”, since there is no negative space between fish. They are all overlapping, so all the viewer sees is fish.
It was quite a challenge to create the design for this painting. Perhaps that is obvious just from looking at it.
