Thank you guys for all the great comments, I appreciate your appreciation!

My passion is to preserve the beauty in fish. You know what I'm talking about, when you see all those colors just after you catch one, how they move around in that watery world.  All the memories, the sounds, smells and sights when you're out fishing and enjoying the great outdoors.  All the good things that last a lifetime.

 

We don't have these Coppernose Bluegills in Minnesota, they are more common in the Southeast US, so it was a challenge to paint them from pictures.  These were the first I ever had the privilege to do.

Fantastic.  My guy (Rich Benedict) is great, but Tim just takes it to another level.  More lifelike than any replicas I have seen.
