Water Color Painting of Koi

Couldn't sleep last night. So I thought why not do something I wanted to try for a long time, that is, to draw a picture of Koi. It was a real challenge for me cause I have never done it before nor am I experienced enough with the characteristics of watercolor. I am still very much a pencil sketching guy. Somehow I struggle and get it done just like the other watercolor paintings I have done.

Turn out to be ok as I really have to remind myself that this is the first time I try. To be fair I have been watching how other people paint on TV all my live. Now with the power of internet and YouTube, I can watch more demonstrations, more easily and more frequently. Thus I have my share of my help to come up with this very first watercolor painting of Koi.

I am happy to see the result. It's a good day for me.
