Coral, A Color Field Cod (as of May 12, 2021)



Here is Coral as she looks today.  (I am painting this wooden fish cutout for the annual "cod auction" to benefit Marblehead Festival of Art.) I was inspired by a photo of coral cod (a real species) Coral cod have bright orange coloring and blue dots, which made me think about color field painting, which often uses bright complementary colors.  I have been working on Coral for the past two days.  The front is basically done, though I may do more cleanup.  Still have to paint the sides and the back. . .
