I received some metallic watercolor paints for my birthday recently and couldn’t wait to give them a workout. As usual, I went to Pinterest for some ideas and got started. I can’t show you the originals because I won’t come out favorably if comparisons are made. I never said I didn’t have glaring character flaws.

Shiny fish! I like the fact that you can’t tell what size it is. Could be a minnow, could be as big as a tuna.

I really want to like this one, but all I can think of is a Petrie dish with little squirmers on it. I didn’t get that vibe at all from the original. Sigh.

I was going for a “sloppy” look. Success! (Ha ha)
I’ll probably delete this shiny post in the morning.
I love the fish!

Kris liked that one too. It’s definitely the best out of the three. I think I may have found my calling as a painter: shiny fish!
