Tasman Turtle - Acrylic Portrait

Have just had a lot of fun creating this portrait of a turtle in acrylic paint. I used modelling compound and metallic paint on the seaweed.

Reef!

Here is a close up of the Murray Wrasse! I enjoyed using gold and silver paint to highlight him/her!

I have been working on the coral today. I have yet to plan what I want to do with the rest of the painting although some of the fish require more detail. This acryllic painting is 60x24inches.
