Codfish Project (Gilda)

I finished my codfish project yesterday. I am one of a group of fifty local artists asked to decorate a wooden cutout of a codfish to be donated to the Marblehead Arts Fest. A few days ago, I thought I was finished, apart from some fine-tuning, but I decided to add some gold in a darker color to accentuate the shape of the fish. I also added some more lighter gold to the surface of the fish. (I also painted the back of the fish with gold paint and signed it in silver ink: will post a photo tomorrow.) Good thing I am finished because this codfish needs to make it to Marblehead by the 16th. Final title: Gilda, which is what I named her, because of the gold paint -- and the gills.
