This is the first pass for this piece and I have decided to make these round eyed koi. A customer mentioned she only liked the paintings of the round eye koi and I thought about it and decided to paint a few with the round eyes. I usually paint them a little more human looking and even at times gives them some personality in their expression. But of course those folks who are really koi watchers know these koi have been painted with artistic license.
