18 x 14 colored pencil painting on Bristol Velum-smooth. This was four months in the making using Prismacolor Soft Pencils, Gamsol solvent in some places for blending and removing the pencil mottling. I used a small amount of white Gauche for the highlights. The reference photo was from a collection of shots that my brother took during a fly fishing trip. This is a German Brown Trout on a weathered bench along with a 5 weight fly rod and reel. Did I mention it took four months! The devil is in the details for me.

This is incredible. I keep looking at it, I know its a drawing but I can't convince my brain its not a picture. The amount of effort that went into this is incredible

Wow this is a great piece of art. It looks so realistic I still find it a bit hard to believe that it's a drawing! the details are amazing
