15×10.25 watercolor on gessoed Saunders 140 lb cold press watercolor paper, drawn and painted from one of my giant koi pond photos taken at the Las Vegas Flamingo Hilton. Their darting about under the water seemed to go with the gesso streaks as if water was actually above them. The title is after an art dealer named Christian.
C&C welcome :rolleyes:

Lovely painting Kay! You certainly achieved the effect of light flashing off these Koi as they swim by!
