Underwater, looking up towards the sunlight filtering down.

Nitro Paints on a sheet of acrylic.

Realized using A technique invented following a winter illness of a strong bronchitis in which I had to pass hours taking intravenous antibiotics morning and evening – I realized I could adapt the tube and needle principle to trail thick liquid color.
