Children have such wonderful imaginations! They are natural artists, often without preconceived notions about their subject matter. I created this fish painting based on a child’s artwork.

I tried to stay true to color and shape, while adding subtle shading and a few enhanced details to create a fine art piece. I used acrylic on 18″ x 24″ canvas.

I’ve been persuaded to explore more of these interpretations of children’s art. I’m calling them my “Li’l Birds”.
