Re: In the deep series #1 Jellyfish
Wowie Zowie Theresa! I like every single little thing about this! The depth you captured is leaving me drooling, what a color palette!. Going back for another look.....  
Good thing you TOLD us it was watercolor - 'cause it could be any other kind of paint too....*L*

Re: In the deep series #1 Jellyfish
One of my less-favorite sea critters, but I like the way it's pushing against its habitat.
One could not predict this almost crystalline texture would evoke a sea world, yet somehow, it does not seem out of place. Fascinating!

Re: In the deep series #1 Jellyfish
i love the background, the way the colors are blended and the interesting, graceful textures formed at the blend site. I also love the colors, muted like under the sea, out of direct light.
i like the jellyfish less, it has something of a pasted on look.
i keep hearing about yupo but still don't quite understand what it is and what its appeal is
i'll have to research...

Re: In the deep series #1 Jellyfish
Agree with Billy. Loved the background. The color and craftsmanship of the jellyfish is less attractive to me. What a terrific series!

Re: In the deep series #1 Jellyfish
this looks like it was pure joy to create. is this a messy process? does the medium go everywhere?
to me, this almost feels like glazed hand thrown pottery. very warm and organic.

Re: In the deep series #1 Jellyfish
Thankyou for your replies, My thought in painting the jellyfish was to give it a bright glowing effect,just like the ones I've seen many times deep sea fishing in the early morning hours,years ago. I did give the tentacles more color this morning. I'll post the scan after we come back from dinner. Thankyou for your comments!
