Koi

I painted this painting in April or May of this year.  I have a koi pond in the backyard and this was one of the most beautiful koi in the pond.  He was a Butterfly Koi.  Butterfly koi have long flowing fins and tail.  Unfortunately, we had a fish kill and this particular fish is no longer with us.  However, he left many fry some of which are still swimming and growing.  I had a hard time photographing the painting and a glare still shows.  The painting is on a 9x12 stretched canvas and is painted in oils.
