Thanks, I needed a little inspiration to get drawing again.

DD Prompt - Draw something with a deep sea theme.

This is my effort for the "deep sea" theme.
I did a quick sketch from a photo from online and then painted it using ArtRage.
I put a layer over the top in dark blue and changed the opacity to try and emulate the water but I think it just made it cloudy!
Never mind, a good time was had by all!!
