Koi - Love & Friendship

 Love & Friendship.

That's what the koi fish symbolizes in the Japanese culture.

Ken Matsuda has captured intricate, stunning details

of both the koi fish and the leaves, vines & flowers.

I had to sharpen my colored pencils to have extra fine points in some areas!

Challenging, but oh so wonderfully relaxing!

I "created" the spots on the fish.

Check out the impeccable details drawn by this artist!

Thanks for coming by!

Have a great day,

Lisa
