Description
Lim Joo Sun composed a mesmerising image of goldfishes in a pond. We can almost feel the graceful movement of the fish as they swerve in the clear water. Goldfish are associated with prosperity, good fortune, abundance, positivity, and wealth. Its beautiful colours and lineage are what makes it special.
