This is my drawing for the EDM Challenge #166: Draw a Fish. It's a White Spotted Pufferfish, my favorite fish to watch..
We see them when we snorkel in Hawaii. They look almost like a dog or a seal - they're very curious and slow and cute. They follow you along as you snorkel, watch you with their eyes and flutter their little yellow fins.They come in a number of colors, but my favorites are the taupe with white spots.
We're going to the Big Island in one week, so will get to see them again!
I used wikipedia for a source picture. Here's the link and pic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pufferfish

Love it! Now that is a face only a mother could love, right!? He kind of looks like my pug when he is looking like E.T.
Well painted. I like your handling of the colors on the body of the fish.

Wonderful job, and my favorite fish, too! They're very personable. I don't see as many since I left Oahu, and had forgotten how colorful they can be.
