F'Angel, Frenchie, whatever....


This painting is 36" x 48". It is a French Angel fish, w/ some color added. I love color!! I wish there was a way on here to show it full size, to really get the feel of it. He's big!! Scroll through my blog to see it from almost start to finish...
I think he's done....I may do more as time goes on. Or I may not. I just don't know right now. I really like this painting. I've never felt so "close" to anything I've done before. This painting just gives off some "vibes" or something. Sounds weird, I know, but there's just something....
The top fin and the tail are the furthest from you, so the detail had to stay minimal, or it would pull them forward. Then he would look like some kind of double-jointed fish.LOL And that just doesn't work. I know as I stare at it, I'll see things and make changes. I'm going to try not to. I know, I keep saying that.
I'm just ready to start the next one. It's going to be big too. I want to get it drawn out tonight. Then, whenever I get a chance to paint, I will be able to. I just can't committ to painting right now. There's just too much going on. Things that are much more important than me painting. More important than anything. So, IF I get time, I'll paint. If I don't, it's ok.

Oh Pegi Sue! I am speechless. Your paitning..it has so much emotion.. He actually looks a little worried. I guess that sounds weird. Are you worried right now?
I am so touched by the beauty of it. Are you planning to sell it?

Wow. I'm very worried right now. My dad is dying of cancer. It's been over a year since we found out. We are at the end.
I think Frenchie's worried about whoever took his picture tho. I hate when I can't remember who I "borrowed" pics from...that's why I try to use more than one photo to work from. To change it a bit...
