New Art: Curiosity

Hello~
Yesterday I finished a piece which I started earlier in the week- which was mildly inspired by the work of Audrey Kawasaki (the fish, at least).
It's my attempt at more collage-like works, where I draw the main components on good marker paper, and then cut the out and paste them onto textured/interestingly colored backgrounds. With marker I've found that it's difficult to create good looking backgrounds, and plus there's always the chance of the marker bleeding and ruining the drawing.
If you aren't familiar with marker being used as a medium, it's not the traditional "crayola" marker or something like that. The ones I use (Copics), are an alcohol marker, and the colors are absolutely beautiful and they give a somewhat water color-like effect, which I love.

The drawing

I am quite happy with how it turned out- I especially love the fish.

I hope you (possible) readers out there like it~
