Fish for fun, two painted fish, marine art ?!
These fish which I wish, make you to smile, will go for auction by and on behalf of The Fisherman’s Mission, a registered charity, patron H M The Queen.
The like each other so rather hope to be sold as a pair.
I feel honoured to be included in this event, alongside 99 well known celebrities asked to paint a fish.
I’ve chosen ‘camouflage evolution’ as their theme.
First I added a vertical tail fin to each creature because as far as i know, all fish have vertical tail fins, mammals have horizontal tail fins…
The brightly coloured fish is attempting to use ‘Dazzle Camouflage’, a scheme designed to make assessing the size, shape, speed and direction of the animal more difficult to assess thus improving its chances of evading predictors.
My other fish has a ‘Bar Code’ camouflage designed to confuse supermarket check out tills.
