Harlequin Chevron Salmon - Zip Pouch

Bolts of red chevrons line this salmon with patterns of light and dark. Playing with pattern, this watercolour painting adds a lightness to it's mighty subject matter.

Watercolour is a quick, playful and freeing medium - just as salmon dart quickly along the river bed, so does the watercolour brush. Playfulness is the reminder. Make art for fun, express yourself with colour.

Patterns of colourful diamonds.

Here, the Harlequin salmon's scales fade and change, row upon row. As a character in a circus, the rushing river, with eternal movement, life and stories. Life is fast-moving, sometimes, colourful, busy. We all have our roles to play, this salmon, a harlequin to keep our hearts buoyant.
