Work in Progress: Bluefish

Bluefish (Pomatomus saltatrix)

This Bluefish painting is a work in progress. I am currently working on other commissioned paintings but will get back to finishing this one before the summer. Bluefish are challenging paint simply because they don't have a whole lot of color to work with. Perhaps that's why not many people choose to paint them... either that, or they've been bitten by the little bastards.
