Coral from a glass bottom boat

Those of you that have ever been to The Great Barrier Reef have possible taken a ride in a glass bottom boat to see the coral and the fish. When my family and I went on one of those coral boat tours it was fantastic,. The kids just loved it (so did I). So that was the inspiration behind this painting.

This painting is one of my fluid style, which is beautiful in the blending of the blue tones of the ocean and golds of the coral heads.
It is a great piece for anyone wanting a beachy/ocean theme.

The edges are painted so there won't be any need for a frame. It is finished in a gloss varnish which enhances the colour and protects the paint.

On the back is a signed and dated Certificate of Authenticity. It is wired ready to hang and has felt cushions to protect your walls.
