Three small fish, with red and white spotted scales, swim in an aquatic environment rendered with a magnificent mix of colors.
 The scene is dominated by shades of cerulean blue, deep turquoise and warm tones of orange and salmon pink.
 The true protagonist is the water, murky and mystical, enriched by gold leaf metallic details that look like algae or solar reflections on the bottom.

 This is not a simple scene; it is the result of a mixed expressive and experimental technique.
 The work combines the transparency and fluidity of watercolor, which suggests the movement of water, with the addition of textured gold elements. These metallic details capture the eye and give the piece a sense of understated luxury and depth.
 Your environment will gain in serenity, reflection and an exotic touch, thanks to the perfect balance created between the dreamy colors of the water and the bright focal points.

 This work was created entirely by hand, celebrating the magic of watercolor enhanced by the use of metallic pigments.
