Something a bit different from me. A traditional (Chinese Style) Koi. This is by no means a piece of art that I just came up with. I used a reference to learn this style a little better and as an homage to this wonderfully elegant type of art. I'm rather pleased with the results though I think I can do better. And I'd like to do it on rice paper next time.

Pentel ink-brush on Bristol. Ink washes using Speedball ink and brush

Oriental Characters thanks to a Fortune cookie wrapper. XD

A special thanks to  Karerease for suggesting that I push my ink style a little and get out of my comfort zone. Yay!
