This is lovely! You have created such a nice variety of plant life and the highlights give them good dimension. The brushstrokes in the water and the bubbles add movement and the fish have great colors too!

Comment from shoregrass


I love this Suzanne and it caught my attention right away for a super initial impact. The soft color tones and somewhat fuzzy impressionistic rendering works so well for this underwater scene. There is a little bit of everything in, yet it is so well designed and spatially balanced that it is not busy looking or cluttered. Just a super job. Good luck!

Comment from Lauren Douglas


Beautiful work! I love the colors you used. The pastels are great even though I have a feeling undersea the colors are brighter. Artistic license is everything!Great composition with the brownish area in the center as a focal point. Awesome job!

oh this is very nice indeed, perfectly executed in watercolor.The blending of the color used is very well done, the back and the front of the painting can be detected by the viewer for it has great detail at the front of it. Well done

Comment from Susan F. M. T.


Suzanne,
A beautiful three dimensional under water picture bursting with life & activity I have feeling as I look that it's not only the fish that are moving but also the sea weed growing on the coral the bubbles adding that extra something. Created with very skilful brush work & that ability to recreate what you see on to the canvas, Artistic choice blending & application of your colours.
Susan

Well done! This is a beautiful painting. I love all of the brilliant colors that yo used in the fish and the coral reefs. I guess if you are painting the ocean, then you have to go all out on color :) You did an excellent job on the details as well. Thanks for sharing this creative painting with us :)

I thoroughly enjoy this work of art. Love all your textures used to depict water and movement. Of course the colors are vivid and I like all the different elements in there! Good job!

Comment from Skye_Rosenthal1


The colour palette is attractive and the hues blend together very well to create an animated yet realistic depiction of aquatic life. This worthy of being featured in an illustrative story book for children. Very well done!
