I did this painting as a Christmas present for my dad. I had no idea what to do for him, but he likes fishes, and I thought this might be a cool, kinda spooky concept. I like to make up ideas about how the giant koi managed to take over the city, if it's just this one city or the whole world, if it's the ancient Atlantis or if the koi deliberately buried the place centuries ago.

The one-eyed fish in the center is sort of modeled after my one-eyed fish, whose name is Leviathan. We call him Levi.

Painted on canvas with acrylics.

I think it's adorable, personally. I pictured it as a normal sized fish and a very very small city. X3

Very nicely done :) It does have a slightly creepy feel, but that's a good thing :D
