It feels so good to get back to painting after taking a break to tuft. It’s great how refreshing it is to have two such vastly different media to play with.
I decided to go with the same colour scheme as the common goldfish for this little fantail. I like how they contrast so much in shape with one looking very simple and lithe and the other looking very round and flamboyant.

Our sticker pack for May/June is goldfish, as voted on by my lovely supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi! This little friend is a common goldfish. I wanted to really lean into their natural orange-gold colour while still adding a bit of rainbow flare. I’m really pleased with their little fishy smile!
The holofoil version of this little cutie is our Ko-fi exclusive reward for this month. If you’d like the exclusive jumbo, holofoil goldfish, please be sure to sign up for the sticker collector tier over on my Ko-fi page any time this month!

More nudibranches! I barely changed the colours on this little guy. It’s really amazing the pinks and purples of these sea slugs in nature. I can only imagine how shocking they are to see while swimming.

This week is another nudibranch! This little guy is based on the blue dragon sea slug. They’re suuuuuuper cute and elegant, but also quite venomous.
I tried to keep the palette mostly to blues, since blue is a pretty important part of these little danger friends.

Here’s another little sea slug friend! I wanted to get this design finished right away, because it’s so complex. This piece took quite a while to get right despite being quite a small painting. There are definitely some bits I would change about it if I could, but I think it turned out adequately sluggy!

And after 6ish weeks of painting, here are all the rainbow turtles together! I’m really, really pleased with how these stickers turned out, both individually and as a set. The over-the-top colours make me happy, and I feel like they’re a huge step towards the kind of work I’d like to be producing.
These guys are available individually or as a set on my website and Etsy stores.
