This week’s painting was such a positive experience. It was an emotional and difficult week with this pregnancy and with every brush stroke, I felt myself escaping more and more. It was therapeutic to continue to add layers of pigment and watch the painting transform half a dozen times until this composition showed itself and I got that familiar feeling–this is it.
The colors and brushstrokes felt reminiscent of what it must be like to go night fishing–not that I would actually know. And then Chris said, “I’m pretty sure night fishing is illegal.” (Turns out, with a flashlight, it is.) So the name of this bad-a painting was born.
As a reminder, I will be producing one painting a week and presenting that painting here on Fridays. It will also be available for purchase in my Etsy shop. We schedule our posts to go live first thing in the morning here, but the paintings will mostly be listed late Thursday nights, so to get a first look (or dibs!) at each painting, it wouldn’t be a horrible idea to add the shop to your favorites on Etsy.  Happy Weekend, friends!
Update: The original painting has sold, but to purchase high-quality giclee prints (4 different sizes available) click here.

Any chance of shipping changing soon?
I love this one (well, I love them all, but I love the dark blues in this one the most). I need to be waaaay faster & more alert if I want to scoop one up!
The painting is beautiful…would you ever consider doing a commissioned work? All the best to you and your family as you work on getting more settled into your lovely new home!
In Minnesota you can go fishing at night — bow fishing, that is. And it does look like your painting!
