I remember fishing with my father, walking down dirt paths to the rivers edge, watching the sunrise as Caddis flies danced in the morning light. Ever since then I have been drawn to the river. 

Several years ago we moved to Colorado from Connecticut where I had a very successful picture framing and gallery business. It was here in Colorado amongst the endless rivers, that I came up with an idea.

  I wanted to find a way to combine my
  love of fishing with my creative talents
  as a picture framer. I solicited the help
  of my friend James Carter, a renowned
  New England artist to create the trout
  images, and  Guenther Riess, truly a world
  class watercolorist to do the saltwater fish.
  I have re-created the river maps in a classical
  pen and ink style on  antique parchment paper,
  with shadow-boxed flies completing the presentation.
  The Saltwater pieces have navagational charts of  some of the best fishing spots in
  the Keys. Each  piece is handsomely framed in a rich walnut stained frame, and matted in a color that compliments
  the piece. 

  I hope you enjoy the pieces, hopefully purchase one or two, and can make it to some of these rivers.
       
                                    Good fishing to all.
