watercolor: Koi Pond

"Koi Pond" was part of a "house portrait" commission. There were two pieces composed: the house, and the pond. My decision - when doing a site visit it was evident that the pond, built by the homeowner, was a source of pride and love. But the view of the house the owner wanted was from below the pond. This perspective was one looking front the deck to the yard. There was no way the portrait would have been complete without a suitable depiction of the pond.
