The One that got Away
A fisherman tells his story13 total reviews
Comment from alaskapat
This is awesome Ray! This is a story that every fisherman or lady can tell, it's that fish that got away and of course it was huge!
Very well rendered with accurate shape and structure good show of the size and proportions . I like his hat and the green shirt with blue jeans rolled above the ankles.
Well shown lake behind him and I like the wooden bench he sits on.
It's almost time for red salmon fishing here!
Well arranged and presented!

Pat, it is so nice to read your review. I had both you and Allan in mind, I know you both like fishing and so do I. Thank you for your wonderful review, rating and thoughtful comments. Ray

Ha, I immediately saw myself in this art piece. I really like his expression, it seems like he does not even believe his embelishment about the size of the one that got away.
Dressed like the perfect fisherman, expecially the floppy hat. Well done and a pleasure to review.

So funny and nicely presented. I know nothing about fishing so I can relate to this young man as he is trying to catch a fish.
Great drawing if all the details, his posture and expression are just perfect. Ray I am out of sixes by now but this one deserves many of them!
