Cutthroat 12" X 16" Oil |
One more painting in my next series, 'Living Water', 'Cutthroat' is fitting as we move into fishing season. Some of the best fresh water fishing is here in Montana and short drives from our ranch. I must confess that I have never been fishing except for in my childhood, those fond memories with Dad on a lake. It was always 'someday' I would learn how to fly fish. I conjure up romantic peaceful scenes in hip boots in the middle of a mountain stream. Since that is not going to happen, I can paint the scene. Cutthroat trout is native to Montana and is making a stronger come back. They are out there for the skilled fly fisherman to catch.
