1550 Kaleidoscope Coral Miniature Oil Painting

This is a little one, its 4 x 6 inches, oil on masonite. I have been painting a few of these undersea fantasy paintings, they are all out of my head, lots of fun to do. I start out with a background of leftover paint on my palette and take a look at it when it is dry and if I am lucky I start seeing where the coral should be and find the fish.
