Courage fish I painted this using Brusho

I painted this using Brusho crystal powdered watercolor media and I painted it backwards using the Crystals last instead of first as I normally do

The Ross Tiger II harbors at the Fishing Heritage Center near Lincolnshire UK

The Seaport of Illwaco Washington holds many memories for many an ocean going sailor

This is a departure from my normal technique but i wanted to show that i can paint "tight" when I want to and on this image I definitely wanted to:)

Courage fish I painted this using BrushoThis title is taken from the Cowardly Lion in the Wizard of Oz when asked if he was a afraid of a Hippopotamus.

This painting lets us float and reflect
