Distinguish fish, Tom!
I suppose he is salt-water fish?... (Of course I can Google him, but I will just ask!) :-)
I noticed the way you used diagonal lines for the bottom scales. These are all so interesting to see how you paint them. Nice!
OK! I feel officially silly! :-) OF COURSE it is saltwater fish, if it lives in Caribbean Sea (I adored the fish and didn't read the text!) :-)
He looks like a calico! How interesting.
Where on earth do you get the reference photos for all these varieties? (I'm not imagining a whole lot of dead fish in your studio. Yikes!) You must either be a fisherman yourself or have a great contact in the industry.
Very good name for this fellow. I chuckle at the thought of you having a bunch of dead fish in your studio for research! But attention to detail is important! Very nice Thom.
