Original artwork description:

I love painting underwater scenes. I love the life, light, color, and freedom of movement. This painting takes elements from a few of my family's aquariums. The red-eared slider does not reside with the phantom tetras or cichlid, but I did catch it in pursuit.

“My paintings are full of light, color, and whimsy. With each painting I invite the viewer to share with me the joy I find in life. It’s simple, I want my paintings to make you smile!”

I build acrylic paints up in layers using brushes (and occasionally my fingers) to create a luminous painting that glows from within.

I use 1.5 deep gallery wrapped canvases and paint the edges black, giving the painting a contemporary look that does not require framing. However it can be framed if you wish. Painting is ready to hang.

Paintings are signed on the front.
