almost done ….. still struggling with the upper right corner. A small painting – 24×24 inch – but a snarky one !

Really interesting picture and comment on that “snarky” corner. Reminds us that oil painting can require a series of iterations. Will be fun to see the final posted with what we see today.
The first thing I feel in this painting is the power in the tail fin of the koi.
Then my eye picks up on the movement and great color of the water.
There is a freshness expressed through the angles and the shimmer of the light on the water!
