This is an interesting piece I did a few years ago that I found in the cellar yesterday while looking for something else (isn't it always the way?) and thought I'd bring back into the daylight and share with you folks. It's painted with acrylics on wood, but rather than use something traditional (like, say, a brush) I decided to apply the paint using nothing but a razor blade. I think it created quite a nice effect, actually, even if I did decide to cheat in the end and put some bubbles on with the cap of a water bottle.
Yes, I know fish don't generally have a stream of bubbles from the mouth... what can I say? Call it artistic licence.

Neat!
What's the meaning behind the title?
Good, but needs more orcs.
I'm glad you both liked it, but I guess I should have explained the title. Slipped my mind; blame it on the pills.
While I was painting it, Wendy said the fish looked like a scrunched up sweet wrapper, so I named the painting 'Sweet Wrapper Fishy'.
(I can't put an orc in everything I paint, you know...)
