MY FISH ART



Hi Friends,

I don't have any new stamping cards to share, but thought I'd post some of my art work.  I began painting trout a few years ago, and quite a few of the trout in my collection are only found in the waters of New Mexico.  

Today's fish is the Rainbow Trout, Oncorhynchus Mykiss (official name for the Rainbow Trout).  I paint my fish in different mediums which include watercolor, oil, and colored pencil.  This particular trout was done in colored pencil.  I love this medium because it's so portable, and when we were traveling, it was easy to bring along in the motor home.  

I've shown and sold my trout art at a local gallery, and art shows.  Art is my first love.  ;o)  People always ask if only men buy my fish, but I am happy to say that the majority of them have been purchased by women.  The cards were printed from my 11 x 14 original paintings.  This is one of my cards.  

Anyway, here's my Rainbow Trout......







I've been MIA for a while.  I'm scheduled for surgery next week, and will be back as soon as I can.  Thanks so much for stopping by to visit.  
Until next time......
                                     Hugs, Geri xo
