Artist's Description
This print is of bluegills caught by my sons on a fishing trip to Wisconsin. I had them mounted and used them to create the picture you see. The colors are vivid and reflect the colors of the orginal fish. The original draing for the print was created using Prisma colored pencils. The actual drawing is 15 inches wide on an 18x24 acid free stock. The print is not matted nor framed. I hope you have enjoyed this picture and will share it with others. You can see more of my works by visiting the various art groups that I am a member of or visiting my artist page. Thank you.
