My entry for contest @xpilar :)

Step 1

I used a transparent brush tool to create wavy lines

Step 2

Added some lighting and underwater effects

The graphic art in undulating design came from art that I designed in my file.

Step 3

Painted a golden glitter seaweed on the left.

Step 4

Added the shoal of fish and subtle fish in left-hand lower corner and lower right. A large fish in soft subtle colour tones was also created in the middle of page.

Step 5

The addition of the seaweed on the right creates a focal point with an unusual fill.

Ocean Whisper -

The sea it whispers secrets to the ears
Deep down on the ocean floor
where shoals of fish glide effortlessly
looking for their store of plankton and more

The swell sways to and fro hardly
seen by the naked eye
Far beneath the waves and tumultuous sea
another world far from you and me.

Behind a misty boulder a shark surprises all
Comes in to feed on unsuspecting prey
as if there were more hours to play
only to find they were the target that day.

The seaweed fronds follow the movement of the sea
Little crabs hide underneath the sand and scuttle with glee
Another space this ocean is
A place of peace we should let it be.
