A large orange carp fish flanked by smaller carp's swim upstream in clear water. The viewpoint of the painting is interesting as the onlooker is given a realistic gaze into the action underwater from an overhead position, while the stream is well drawn to represent flowing water. The creator has skillfully painted a large orange carp into being the focus of the painting and decorated it with exquisite white fish of the same species. The stream is a complex blend of orange and brown much in contrast to the usual blue color of fresh waters. In addition, an abstract geometrical design has been included in the painting.
