This is Day #7 of the World Watercolor Month today I was debating deciding what to paint. I also wanted to paint something different and combine a girl face with an animal, I love to do that lately. Today painting is titled “Girl With Koi” I love the Japanese Koi fish their colors are beautiful. I was inspired to combine a Koi and a colorful and glamourous girl together in a vortex of blue water.
” Koi or more specifically nishikigoi, are ornamental varieties of domesticated common carp that are kept for decorative purposes in outdoor koi ponds or water gardens. Koi varieties are distinguished by coloration, patterning, and scalation. Wikipedia

Deep Water
Surrounded by the blue deepest water. The reflections of floating emotions, loaded the mind and body in a fearless state.Tranquillity and silence flying through the broken branches of a life experience, were glowing under the warm sunlight.
Suddenly warm rain drops of happiness joined the deep water becoming one.
A 50 Words Story ©Carolina Russo
Today for April Celebration is National Tell A Story Day!
I hope that you enjoyed to read my little story and that did bring you some good feelings and thoughts during this day or evening. I wanted to combine two of my artistic and creative way of expression, “Watercolors and Writing”. I wanted to share one of my 50 words stories “Deep Water” and illustrate it I with one of my watercolors that I painted few years ago for my mom.
National Tell a Story Day is observed in the United States each year on April 27th.
We are all encouraged to share all kinds of stories on National Tell a Story Day. Whether it’s read from a book, one from your imagination or an actual story from a childhood memory, April 27th is the day to gather friends and family and share those stories.
Details about my doodlewash:
I used a basic watercolor palette Artist’s Loft Fundamental watercolor pan set this pan set is considered for beginners but I enjoy it for the variety of colors and use it a lot for sketching. I also used a Pigma Micron Black Ink pen #005 over a Watercolor Cold Press 140lb paper!
