Tiny Bubbles, 5 x7 painting, showing rustic barnwood frame
I fell in love with sunfish when I was very young, fun to catch and so pretty to look at. Well, not much has changed as I have aged.
I teach painting at Mt. Carmel, a family retreat center near here and one of the young boys went fishing every day off the dock and was always so proud of his catch and was happy to share photos with me, so I adapted the fishy to look like he was coming up for air. At the same time my husband was making frames from the 125 year old barnwood from our farm and when we put the two together it was like magic, the bubbles from the fish appear to go right off into the frame. Now how cool is that?
