Patience on the Joe

"Patience on the Joe" watercolor 12.5x3.5 - $95.0

 A little watercolor of a fishing friend on the St. Joe River in Idaho. It was a great day with the beauty all around, and the weather was pleasant, but the fish outsmarted us that day.

Here is a step by step demo of the progression of how this little work came to be. After the drawing, I pretty much worked from dark to light, saving the whites. No masking fluid on this one, quick loose strokes wherever I could. Colors were mainly Azo yellow, sap green, paynes gray and ultramarine blue. a bit of cad yellow, and winsor green, and whatever brown was dried up in my pallette, probably burnt umber.

When I was in my 20's, I dreamed of getting one of these, and taking a road-trip across the USA. To get a good firsthand look at America, and meet the hard working folks. I think it would be so fun.

Get your Trophy Catch Painted

Sometimes fisherman want to save the memory of a big catch, but can't always get it stuffed. The next best option is to just save the memory in a photo (even a bad photo) and get it painted. I have done this several times for fisherman, and I can do it for you to. I can paint in an oil or watercolor. figure roughly about $4.00/square inch for the size of painting you want.

Capturing Alaska

This is a painting of a view of Alaska I photographed  from a trip I was blessed to get to take with my son Last Summer (2013) It was great. I was hosted by my old college roomie.
