The flamboyant lion fish inhabits coral reefs and is a delight to watch and photograph. Red and white stripes adorn its body and it has the most extraordinary pectoral fins, used for herding its prey. Don't be fooled by its beauty as the spines carry toxins that can inflict a very painful sting. It moves through the water with grace, fins waving rhythmically from side to side. I find it mesmerising to watch and a challenge to paint.

This artwork skilfully captures the delicate silky fins and detailed coral textures. A shoal of golden sweeper take shelter from the moving current. Blue and green hues seductively shimmer through the warm glow. This is an enchanting artwork that would suit a quiet contemplative area in your home. Wake up to a world of wonder!
