Using Titanium white, ultramarine blue and raw sienna I finished adding to the plants at the top of the rock face. With the white, I indicated the top of some of the sponges lower down on the rock face.
With various mixtures of raw sienna, burnt sienna and Hansa yellow, I added some tube sponges on the edge of the rocks closest to the Jack-knifefish (Equetus lanceolatus).
From there using the same colours I added more sponges into the middle of the center area and a few more smaller ones towards the left side.
Next, I used a mixture of Titanium white, ultramarine blue and vermillion and put in a couple more of the purple sponges toward the middle of the rock face and some much smaller, duller coloured ones to the left side.
At this point I wanted to get the top area of the rock face completed. I mixed various greens using ultramarine blue, cerulean blue, raw sienna and Hansa yellow.
Using the greens I put in some of the small, leafy sea weed, draping it down the rock face from beneath the light coloured sponges and corals.
Lastly, using the darker greens I added a few pieces of seaweed above and around the smaller purple sponges.
I will post this painting at a later date once I have finished painting the remaining coral and sponges on the rock face.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and enjoy the artwork. I hope you will return often.
