Sketch of a Few Fancy Betta Fish, Art Sketches Daily, May 21...




Here is a sketch of a few betta fish.  I love betta fish, these are based on some of the fancy betta fish varieties.  Yesterday's were pet store bettas as mine was.  Betta fish are also known as Siamese fighting fish and male betta fish fight each other to the death; so in real life they must be kept apart, but in my sketches they are much more mellow...  I might do a mini painting of one of them and possibly also have one betta fish be a friend to a tiny goddess, but I may need to do some more sketches...


I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in May.  This is day 21.

This is a rough sketch.  You may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.

I am also participating in Sunday Sketches.  To view more Sunday Sketches, please visit:

  4. lovely sketch of the pretty fish :)

    i feel so sad for them when I see them in little containers at the pet stores, they need big tanks just like other fish do

  7. Jennifer, I also feel sad for them when I see them in the tiny little cups, they do enjoy larger spaces...
