Anemone & Clown Fish

This was inspired by my last painting. It's a bit blurry because it's on a 20X24 inch canvas board, which doesn't fit on my scanner, so I had to hold my camera

Aquatic Scene

I'd been wanting to make a more realistic piece for some time. I thought a jelly fish would be interesting, then I added a squid, an eel, and an anemone with a clown fish. I'm pleased with the jelly fish and the anemone and clown fish really came out well, but I think I could have done better with the eel and squid

Forked Spoon

Odd thing about the upper cross hatching. They were supposed to be shades of purple, but when I mixed red with two different tones of blue, I got the two colors there.

Orange Rain

This is the first multimedia piece I've done in a while, done with constuction paper and strokes of orange acrylic paint, on 9X12 canvas board.

Panda

Once I'd made the yellow chain on the red background, I knew it called for a photo in the corner, but who or what? After spending months putting off the decision, I thought contrasting the bright red and yellow with a dark photo, so I thought of a dark photo of an Islamic woman, then I thought, "Do I really want to get on that anti Islamic band wagon? so I put in the panda, thinking the green flora and gray ground might contrast well with the red background I painted. What do you think?
