Get your Trophy Catch Painted


"My Trophy Chinook" 8x12 oil on canvas - commission
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.
Just email me the photo, put down a deposit, and I will create for you a lasting memory of your trophy catch! See other examples on the blog below.
"Colors of the River" 30" wide watercolor - sold (Release Example)

Example of photo used for above painting.
My Son helped add a few spots!

Capturing Alaska



"Alaska's Mountains and Meadows" Watercolor 30x18, Prints Available
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. It was a great time seeing all of God's beauty and catching and eating Salmon. I hope to go again someday. See below some of the photos of the trip, and a map of where we were when we captured this view of some of Alaska's Mountains and Meadows. I may make some prints of this image, email or message me if interested. The original is for Martin and Robin. Below is the Map of where we were. See the green locator.
"A" Marks the spot about where we were for the painted view.

"Palouse Red and Green" - Demo

"Palouse Red and Green" (North Idaho) Oil on Canvas 48x34 - $4,500

This is a place just north of where I live in North Idaho. (go north of Potlatch, take deep creek road head north than take a road heading west. drive until you get up kind of high, and you will see some neat views south. ) The barn needed a cupola, so I painted one on it. Otherwise the painting is pretty  much as the land lies. I have been wanting to paint a classic big north Idaho palouse shot with red barn and the green hills for some time. So finally here it is. Email me if interested in the original painting, and I may make some prints as well if there is interest in this.

Here are some of the steps taken to create the big Palouse Red and Green Painting.
My son Josh helped get started on this painting. He painted the sky, and the mountain bkgd. When he helps me paint, we sign the paintings A&J Sewell.
