Hey Friends,

As some of you knows, I had been dragging (drifting) away by school things early of this year ... Although it's a good experience to be able to concentrate on the books, but it have changed my status in this forum from "participating to lurking" ... @@. Now it's almost the end of the year, and this is my favorite time of the whole year. Turkey is roasting and wine is ready ... I just painted this fall brown trout and want to share it with you. Happy Holiday, my friends!

You do good work! I like it!

glad to hear from you mark. at least you've been away for a good reason. i'm glad you're making time to paint some. i remember when i was in school i used to take ceramics classes almost every quarter just to have an outlet. a time when i had to create stuff, not just study all the time. hope your turkey and wine were great.

Mark ... what a wonderful painting from our resident artist and "lurker". HA ...

Thanks, gentlemen,

Although lurker(s) are not post as often as they did ... I am sure they are still watching and enjoying this forum. : )

Welcome Back Mark, you were missed. Happy Holidays to you.

Thanks for the kind words! My friends,

I feel home here as always ... Tim, I love your style! Please share your work with us ... Howard, I will be planning a western trip soon! : ) Doug, as you can see the fish color get a bit too excited ... my mom said it looks like just roasted ... (ready for the dinning time) @@

mark, what can we say, but amazing! wish it was in my den, with my trout stuff. you see there's the empty spot on one of my walls, and. ...

striking work, Mark.

Thanks for the kind words, my friends ... I really appreciate it!
Hope the rain will stop soon and I can go fishing again ...
