Why paint Koi Fish?

A tutorial for learning how to paint a Koi Fish has a lot to offer young students. The view from overhead keeps the shapes really simple and graceful. As a watercolor resist, there’s the fun of adding white crayon lines for bubbles (always fun when they appear!) and the blue and orange combination just make the fish pop off the page.
