"Casting Therapy" by Kirk Larsen

4" x 6" painting size, Oil on Wood Panel

While painting a tranquil, bucolic scene on a river, with my easel straddling rocks and my eyes ever diligent scanning for rising waters, a fly fisherman waded into the water downstream of me and I could not resist... I grasped by emergnecy stand-by mini panel and painted the fisherman as he got lost in the total zen of fishing. If you do not know there is a great deal of difference between fishing and, catching and one should always seize the moment if given the opportunity, to go fishing.
