Art, Koi

Japanese Koi by Azrael-Nekhbet Its very late/ early morning, and I should be in bed. Tomorrow I’m off to my sisters in France for a couple of weeks. Last time I was there was Easter and she had just bought a whole lot of assorted goldfish for her garden. What I remember most about that holiday is happily wandering around her pond, netting fish, swapping fish from one pond to another and setting up display tanks to show off the best of the fish. Which is why I thought before I leave, a quick Art Sunday post devoted to the beautiful Koi would be appropriate. It’s a little early but  better than not at all. Enjoy the Koi.....................         Koi Symmetry by celestriastars Both of the above from  http://www.arted4life.com/nature-art/koi-fish-drawings   These three below are by Susan Rose    These three are from here all from here http://lpkaster.com/koipaintings.html and this is a Japanese drawing from here http://janzaremba.com/blog/index.php   delete reply fransformation wrote on Jul 25, '11 Most unusual ...
