Description
I've been extremely uninspired/unmotivated this week, so I cued in "kids" into gettyimages.com, and found goldfish. That instantly triggered me onto the idea of having a goldfish in one of those bags with water you'd get to take it to and from the pet store. So here we have a frantic goldfish, wondering if time is running out...colored pencil on conte paper

Wow! most impressive. Very realistic, yet the goldfish has a certain humanish expression. It looks quite natural though. Great handling of the reflections on the bag of water and the goldfish's scales.

aww.. thanks! I'm familiar with working with colored pencils, but this was my first time on colored paper (other than brown)... and I was excited how it came out. Sometime soon I think I want to do just fish on the dark paper.. hopefully some sardines.

It did come out good! :3 and you should definitely try doing just fish on dark paper... *grin* it'd probably be awesome.
