The underprint is a black and white photo I took of my goldfish decades ago in Santa Barbara. I have nearly always had goldfish. Only recently I switched to Koi. This piece has layers and was completed using Micron and Posca Pens, F&W ink, acrylics and 2 coats of final varnish. I was asked in a Zoom peer review what I call my technique. 'Scribbling, I call my technique scribbling.' 12x16x1.5" mixed media mounted on cradled hardboard. the underprint was printed on heavy wt Epson Hot Press Natural paper using archival inks.
