Description
Sea dragon by Joan Stratton - A surreal painted colourful Leafy SeaDragon on a black background. Love the flow of sea dragons, its like they dance through the water. Silver oil outline pulls all of the other colours in creating patterns.
I developed this original layered painting style to use, primarily, on my land and seascapes to give the look of texture, depth and movement. I use a mixture of mediums to get the overall desired effect.
The leafy seadragon or Glauert's seadragon, Phycodurus eques, is a marine fish in the family Syngnathidae, which includes seadragons, pipefish, and seahorses. It is the only member of the genus Phycodurus. It is found along the southern and western coasts of Australia. The name is derived from the appearance, with long leaf-like protrusions coming from all over the body. These protrusions are not used for propulsion; they serve only as camouflage (from Wikipedia).
