Well what can I say. It's my first underwater painting. A learning experience that's been sitting propped up for me to mentally disect for the past few months actually. I've touched it up a bit here and there but for the most part have just lost the spark of it. So here it is. I'm going to say it's finished ... even though it feels like a painting can never actually be finished. Maybe it's just taking time to breathe ....

Excellent, reminds me of an actual dive I had and saw a school swim by me. Awesome flashback!
