Something Fishy

I was painting over one of my "Emerge and See" paintings and what I came up with was this:


I kind of liked the fish for a change and then I decided to colorize it with mixed results:


One thing to remember about this technique is that if you use water color paint, the water reactivates the ink and things get a little smudgy.  On the other hand, you can still wipe things off and start again.  After the water colors I used some pastel pencils and smeared them around.

What a difference a day makes.  Last week we had temperatures in the 80's and tomorrow will be around 45.  I have to go to the dentist in the morning to replace some fillings to the tune of $300 and then off to Lord and Taylor where I finally got a couple of shifts this week.  I thought they forgot me.
