Chinese Watercolor in Fabric

My latest project for class was an attempt to emulate the style of Chinese Watercolorists using fabric. It ended up being a bit more difficult than I had anticipated, but I feel on the whole I was at least partially successful.

The first image, of the koi in the blue background, was my first attempt. Normally I do not dye my own fabrics, but this project was an exception. However, in this case, I think the water is a bit much so I dyed only the fish on the second try.
