I concentrated on using layers of it, trying not to overthink the creation.

of what I usually do…and just generally. Have some old tubes of gouache that I got with other stuff from freecycle. They are mostly dried solid, so I had to use pliers to get the tops off. Then I scrubbed the tube tops across wet watercolor paper and played with the results. The fish was in a pile lying on the table and just seemed to want into the scene.
