"Chattanooga Jelly'
12 x 16" watercolor on aquabord

Re: Chattanooga Jellyfish - finished!

Wow...with your deep backgroud this jelly really pops. This must have been VERY hard to paint because of their irridescent nature. But you nailed it! Beautiful painting.

Very beautiful painting! I like the bright red tendrils of jelly fish and how they contrast with everything.

Re: Chattanooga Jellyfish - finished!

Thanks everyone! I took a better shot today of the painting. I darkened it's top a tad. This is the final version. I am super pleased with it!
