Description Just finished today! 36 x 36 inch acrylic on canvas. It's hard to tell from this photo, but I've used some pearlised paint - some mid blue and some mid yellow. It has a shimmery look to it, much like the fish scales.

This is for an upcoming solo exhibition at Rustic Blue in October for the KI Art Feast 10, called "Inspirations, Observations, and Affectations - A Celebration of Nature"

Schooling Threadfin Pearl Perches at Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia.

Actually it's really hard to photograph and do it justice. I has such a lovely shimmer to it, and at night, all the shimmer really shows up under lights and make it look even more like underwater.

Thank you!!! I will be selling the original in October at an exhibition...
