Getting back in the swim of things - Mix It Monthly's theme of fish

Well our house is up for sale and we have been packing and painting and fixing! Busy, Busy! Although we are still in the process,  I wanted to get back into the swim of things and do some art and saw that Mix It Monthly's theme is fish! I saw a video of how to draw Koi fish on You Tube several months ago and saved the video. I thought now was the time to try and draw that beautiful fish in my art journal. Here is what it turned out like. Hope you enjoy seeing it. It is a watercolor which is my favorite medium. Now I just need to learn to get my camera strap out of the way when I take pictures!

Your watercolour fish in the blue water looks great. I like his reflection deeper down and his pretty colouring.

Beautiful watercolor page! Your koi fish looks fine in his movement, and I like your leaves and the water too.
