I have an aquarium at home full of fish, and your brilliantly detailed artwork reminds me of my pet fish in the aquarium. Your friendly looking colorful fish also reminds me of the children's picture book: Rainbow Fish.

This makes me think of the movie Finding Dory. What a beautiful underwater scene.
I think it's the title, where she keeps saying keep on swimming! I love the colors in this piece and the wonderful feeling of happiness it gives just to view. Wonderful work.
Best wishes in the contest.

Great artwork with lovely colour hues of this underwater scene. I like the look on the cheeky bigger fish. Very nicely composed and well balanced. A delight to view, thanks for sharing.

I think your technique sounds interesting and the results are lovely. I like how bright the colors look and the largest fish has such a happy expression. All the fish look good and the reef scene has excellent highlights and shading. Very nice!

Comment from Nancy Montana
This reminds me of The Little Mermaid with a smiling fish. The ocean and it's inhabitants are accurate if not totally realistic. The brilliant colors of the 2 fish are delightful as is the overall feel of the painting.

Wonderful colors in your beautiful pallet to create this delightful underwater scene. Very whimsical creating personality in your fish! Love them all in how they swim around in the kelp. Elements are very well framed and just very fun to view. Thank You for sharing.
