Hmm I am thinking maybe something "reef" inspired with a nice R2R logo on it to give away?? :D

Paid for by R2R of course.

Great work!!

My daughter does all kinds of painting. Here is a post I made of some of her murals https://www.reef2reef.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71124

I painted for a while. Thinking about getting back into it. I sorta suck at it, but enjoy it nonetheless. I would like to do marine life this time as opposed to buildings and landscapes

This is a balcony in Hell's Kitchen as viewed from the top of a tour bus:

The bottom strip of this one shows the process of painting it:

This is a church in Venice, Italy.

Some random New England Lighthouse:

and finally, just an old shack, but one I like.

And a landscape that I enjoy staring at:

Haha, love your modesty. Nice watercolor man. I never could get the hang of that medium. Maybe you could paint a reef themed watercolor using seawater as a carrier.

Thanks guys!

Since I'm in a showing off kind of mood, here's another one of my favorites's:

Seawater would be cool when it evaporated, watercolor texture :)

Thanks. I have never painted with anything else as I am too lazy for the cleanup. As for the reef theme with salt water, if the salt did not screw up the pigment, it would add some great texture. Actually, salting a watercolor when it is wet can create a texture like that around the boat in the above pic. Since this thread started, I have been thinking about a reef painting though. Might need to break out my gear some rainy Saturday.

Regarding the "Aloe Ferox", that is very nice.

I want to do a life like reef painting.. meaning I paint the rocks on, wait a month... draw some CUC after a while and then color in a zoa here and there and add to them every few months. hahahah

Yeah, but how do you unpaint a diatom bloom? :wink:

 

[El Fantasma]

Let's just say the rock and water I painted was from an established tank so I bypassed the cycle ;)
