Convict Lake Rainbow Trout

This is a wood-carved piece of pine that I oil painted.  It was my first time ever using oil paints.  I put two coats of lacquer over it to give it a yellowed tint.  I mounted it on a piece of pine.  It reminds me of the fish I try to catch on our fishing trips to the High Sierras each June.  Click on the photo for a larger view.

  1. Totally awesome! May I commission you to draw a rainbow trout like this on a square of muslin fabric using fabric paints? Send me a note through Tom's email.

  2. And WE are the lucky recipients. It hangs above our fireplace in our family room. Thanks, Guy.
