"Rainbow Trout" - Watercolor on paper - 15" x 11"

Trout leap
against the stream
heading Nature's call




I wasn't nearly as productive today as I would have liked but I managed to start and finish this painting all in the last bit of the evening.  This painting spoke to me and told me of the fish within it, leaping against the current of a wild river.  I used to fish every summer with my grandparents when I was a kid and later with my Uncle and Aunt as an adult.  
I love the taste of fresh caught trout, foil cooked over a campfire for breakfast in the morning.  Whenever I see trout it immediately brings me back to those wonderful summers in the mountains.
