Sea Bass Postcard


This is my entry for the SPA challenge this week (Fishes). I went colorful and somewhat traditional with my take on a kind of Japanese woodblock look. The Kanagawi wave and (fossil) fishes are (Dover) images. Asian stamps and artistic background papers were used as a base. Artistic filters added.
