Whirling Dervish.Semi-Abstract......Pastel..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews

I began this with a pour of watercolor and acrylics on an Ampersand board.
At the time of the pour, I had no idea what I wanted to paint, so I decided to just play with the liquid media.

When it naturally dried, I began to wade through my photos, and decided to use KOI as my muse having watched and photographed tons of these fish on Maui on my last trip there.

I used my pastel pencil to draw the shapes into the painted areas, and then proceeded to overlay my pastels to retrieve the fish.

This is a large painting, 24" x 36" and is unframed. I hope you like it..

Ethereal Koi ...Acrylic...Texas Artist...Rae Andrews

                                 ETHEREAL KOI 2 is a large acrylic on gallery wrap canvas.
I love color and movement in my paintings, the subject is irrelevant to me really.

As I 'veiled' a lot of acrylic colors over the underneath colors, I began to 'feel' the fish in this painting, so away I went.
I hope you like this one.
