Sea Turtle ~ paper sculpture

[RWSewell]

Been a while since I've done an underwater critter and I've always wanted to try a sea turtle. Going with a frilly background graphic came about organically and made for a tempting challenge. Time consuming work with (for me) an interesting conclusion. I'll have to try this again sometime.
Thanks for looking!

This is so creative and original. The shapes of the design complement the turtle well.

This is superb. The subject and the background work together perfectly. I really like the use of blue and gold

Great Rob. The turtle is brilliant and I love the scrolls!

This is beautiful. The orange shell really pops and the blue water is very well done.
Cheers,

Very, very nice. I can see that in glass as part of an entry door.

A beautiful piece of art! The colors, the details, the background pattern - it's wonderful.
