Trout on canvas.

One of my sister's friends is an art teacher and, at the beginning of 2012, she embarked on a project of putting paint to canvas everyday in order to create 1 unique piece of artwork for each day of the year. I started bugging my sister with the suggestion of painting a fish as I would imagine it might become difficult to think of something new to paint each day.

Not only was Heidi gracious enough to produce a wonderful piece of artwork, my sister was kind enough to purchase a reproduction for me. LouLou made the drive up to my place this morning and presented the gift to me. I know she was dying to see it however, since it was a gift for me, I told her I had to be the one to open it first. Ha, the pain in the ass brother that I am.

Unfortunately, my photo does not do this piece justice as there is almost a 3 dimensional feel to the water around the fish. My thanks to Heidi for humoring me and to my sister for the wonderful gift.

Be sure to take a look at Heidi' website for more examples or her work.
