Inspired by my fly fishing days - presents in high textured acrylic relief with rich colors on quality canvas signed by me - Southern Appalachian folk artist 12 x 16 canvas board. This rendering is Brook Trout - a "hover" under the pressure of an angler above.
The Brookie - Salvelinus fontinalis - is native to the Eastern US including the North Georgia Mountains where it is now considered extinct as a true Southern Appalachian sub-species although it is being stocked by hatcheries as the more North Eastern variety which seems to be somewhat hardier than our old "Specs".
