Niice! I like 'em both, but the yellows in this one really do it for me for some reason. I'llhave to check your website (and congrats on the show!).
I like them both, but this is my favorite. Nice work.
Oh I like this!

Yeah, your work is really incredible, so complicated and detailed but looks deceivingly simple... congrats on the show and your website is really awesome
I really like this! I need to check out your other entry...I love the colors in this one :)
Both pieces are from a wonderful color/texture palette you've developed over the months. My wife and I visited the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and these two posts are marvelous reminders of the critters.
Yes, this could be right out of the Monterey Bay Aquarium! I love the colors and the touch of purple. Brilliant!
I really like this yellow one. The composition is very nice with all the extra space at the top.
Scott - These are both great, so realistic looking, yet stylized and graphic, as well. very cool!
I really like the style you have developed. Great combination of line with sweeping painterly strokes of colour on a textured surface.
Mmmmmmmmmmm.... this has really been a great subject for you. This illustration is wonderful. The combination of colors, the difference in the softly rounded fish and the pointy anemome (sp?) the texture. Your wonderful line work with the varied tapered strokes is subtle but so effective.
Yes, both are good, but this one is just a little more appealing IMHO. In fact, I could see this as a published illo in an aquarium mag.
like both, but i perfer the first one, suppose i just have to be different!
you seem to be very inspired at the mo! Very beautiful colors and love that spiny sea urchin!
I like them both too, but not sure which is my favourite. Thanks for dropping by as well.
well this is out of the "ordinary".. i actually like the details of this fish and the last one. you know i like your artwork.. you know that silly..
really like both versions, love your style of drawing very much. adore the vintage feeling they have.
thanks also for stopping by and words!
Something fishy around here... all kidding aside I love the punch of purple. Of course I am a color magnet...the brighter the better...maybe I'm a crow!hmmm...
Nice job! Congratulations on your show too!
Love the colors on both illos - very sharp!
I also checked out your website - I like how it seems like your flipping through a sketchbook - very cool.
The mood of this piece is powerful. It's the purple playing off of the yellow. A great, creative take.
Great quality in your work always. Love the color you use.
Both of these are very strong and well done. I love the texture in the background. All of your work is great.
Wow, gorgeous colors. I like the warmth of this piece, and the way the lips and anemone stand out on the otherwise monochromatic painting. Very nice. One of my all-time faves actually!
Another great one!

Ummm, very nice.! I love the fish with it's zebra stripes, and that great mouth, and the yellow water colors, with the purple of the urchin?
Great website, by the way.
Thank you for stopping by my blog! I love them both, mainly because your colour choices are fabulous! I love surprises--and your sudden pops of colour really brings out the whole picture.
I like both your scale pieces! Your style is very satisfying.
Beautiful! Love the colors! The shape composition and textures are perfect.
Hi !
Nice work with the texture in the background.
See you Scott
I agree with everyone, I like both of them...you have an amazing compositional style and color combination.
I agree with Forever Young; this piece is very nice but I prefer the color contrast and the flowing composition of the first one.
By the way I haven't seen you around lately. You must be lost in the "real world."
I love your vintage style!
I prefer this one.

I like them both. But my favorite is TWO. I like the movement of the pattern on the fish, very catch my attention. Great color and feel of vintage.
very nice lines and a nice look to both of these scale pictures
Love it! The color combo is rich and gives it a real mood of introspect. The purp pops! BEautiful work.
I dig your color palette here, as always.
Been away from IF for a long time, so didn't see these when they were first posted - both striking illustrations, and the anenomes are beautifully rendered! So now you're the offical "Hand and *Fish* Master"!
Scott, you never cease to amaze me. Thanks for having coffee with me last Fri at Barnes&Noble. I like this fish. Your creative talent is wonderful to watch!
