Experimenting and having fun

Fantasy painting - experimenting. I am an admirer of Stephanie Low's artwork. She does fantasy, fairy, mermaid, folk tale painting. I love her ethereal style. I decided to play around and see what happens. This presented itself. I first put in a back ground of Burnt Umber and an iridescent paint and let dry. Then I added drops of paint and let dry. Then I put down a clear ground and let that dry. Then I just started drawing with a pencil what I saw. It is amazing how these little critters just sort of appeared ! It was a fun process and will do again.  I will use this for a card background with an ocean theme for sure.
