This is another fish painting that is a work in progress.
I painted the whole of the left fishes fins and tail in orange and let that dry, then I painted the whole of the body area in deep red, and let that dry.
Then I added scarlet to the top fin, or tail, vermilion to the middle area and deep red to the lower ones and let them dry.
When that was all dry I added streaks of deep red and orange on the top fin or tail. I painted more red streaks in the next fin or tail area. I painted a streak of deep red on the middle one.
Then I painted a streak of white at the very end of the right hand fin.
On the fish on the right I painted the bottom of it red and the top of it white. Then I left that to dry.
What have you lot been getting up to today?
I hope you are all well.
Have a great night.

@sharonelton Makes me think of a slab of smoked salmon - in a nice way. I paid a visit to the little Tesco in town that I found tucked away off tyhe main street today. It's very small but I felt at home in it.

I don't really know what kind of fish it is.
Edit:- They are called Betta Fish, also known as Siamese Fighting Fish.
