I painted this from a photo reference I found somewhere (I am not a scuba diver and could never get that deep anyway where the ocean would be so dark). I was curious if I could convincingly capture the translucent and phosphorescent qualities of this creature with paint which is mostly opaque. I knew it would be a challenge and in the worst case it would be an exercise to learn from. I was pleased enough with the outcome to sign and frame.
