The rest of the Line Up
The newest edition is the Gold Lobster. I have toyed with a gold Cod but in Marblehead that has been done. I think they look great. Along with the HumpBack Whale, Striper and the arched Brown Trout. I want to make the Brown and the Rainbow in either straight or arched.

Tinkers Island Fish Co
Here are the original two designs I started developing. They have come quite a way from the first ones. The marble eyes are some thing I resisted at first but now they are the cherry on top, the icing on this fishy cake. I have been working with Ditto Editions, Susan and Nick Fader, to get my presentation more polished. Nick just reshot all of the fish and I will be posting them as soon as I can get them ready.

Big Brownie
This is the Large Brown Trout that I brought to the Chatham Arts Center show. So I'm not the best photographer. I think the sun was bad when I first tried to shoot it and then I forgot later in the day. You can see the scale in the tent (10'x10'). I will get a bettter shot. The fish is about 5.5 feet long. The Brownies are always my favorites to paint. The colors are great.

Biggie Striper
This biggie is about 6.5 feet long by 22 inches deep. It was the fIrst large scale fish I tried. It looks great and people do love it at the shows. These large fish I have coated with a gloss or satin polyurethane. I am thinking about do it to all of the fish soon. I like the matte finish with the paint I am using but I am going to have to test it out. Maybe try a matte finish. This picture was from the Chatham show.
