FISH IN BOWL
When drawing subjects that are transparent like this fishbowl, you are actually rendering the reflections on its surface. Clear glass and water have little or no color of their own, so the colors you see and use are reflected from the objects around them. In this example, I use mostly grays and blues, but all the colors under the rainbow are possible options. Just draw what you see and be open to using all the colors you observe.
