Everyone deserves a day off

Gone Fishing, mixed media on birch, 6 x 6"

I remember my fishing days, they were short lived. Having to take the hook out of a fish's mouth was simply not something I wanted to tackle again. 
And, today, it was sort of deja vu. This painting was something I thought I had finished, and yet...it needed just a finishing touch. I won't share my secret...but I am happy again that working with mixed media -- plus my being patient -- can pay off!
