    Great! Most people have them just swimming around,you have a good design with the feeding.

  • Alexandra Felgate replied

    Thanks Jimmie!! I really love the sort of Mandala effect you see when they are all feeding in a circle! These fish are so calming to watch, very therapeutic :)

    they are great .. i like the slight motion and positioning of them. Watercolour pencil and ink seems just perfect for it.

  • Alexandra Felgate replied

    Thank you Gen! Its a rather “watery” and flowing medium, so I guess it fits!!
