Sparkling Fishes.


As a chinese painter when I was just a little girl.
Used to drew gold fish in chinese ink and colours. Found lots of interested on using different materials since I transformed from chinese painting to western style painting which I called "My acrylic period".

I love acrylic so so much because there's lots of different ways and technique to play with.
You can add different types of acrylics mediums such as grain gel,iridescent and sand texture gel etc.
Over all , FUN!

When ever you don't like any bit in your painting you can cover layers and layers on top to made it as you want it to be.It dried fast and easy to handle.

This is actually my first time on using acrylics to paint fish - sea fish.
I first was using  a normal paper which we had in class.

But it didn't came out as I want it to be.The paper goes rubbery and not flat anymore(it kind of curled around the middle.)

The whole thing is going very questionable.

Then I bought my own canvas fabric or cotton.Whatever you called.

Is much better than the paper.I can finally use my secret weapon finger tips technique.(Keep it secret! Shu!)

I can smashing the whole thing without worrying about the damage and enjoy it.

I also picked up some sliver acrylics for the sparkling effect.I love it so so much.

I think this is a finished piece that's why I'm gonna share it to you all.



The original 

I first look at their patterns very detail.The patterns were very shinny and small 



Was loving their little shell very much.
It had blue, grey,red,pink,sliver,brown,black………………..


First sketch



And the master final piece.


For the background I used a brown tone to cover the whole thing, let it dry then used a very new weapon inspired by a dried crush Paper card  to paint across the lines and the brown tone.


Quite exciting to show people tmr.








Alright , Is 1.30am I got to write an essay and sleep.
Hope you enjoy today's blog and don't forget to keep smiling and be beautiful.XX
