Odyssey

November 01, 2016 in Paintings and Drawings

Odyssey, 2016, Acrylic on Canvas, 24 x 36

My father passed away too early in life at the age of 65.  He battled with a brain tumor since he was 36 but in the end, it was a malformed heart valve that took him.  He was the most courageous and unlimited person I have known.  He pursued his interests without fear of judgment or an ounce of embarrassment.  

After his death I decided to paint an epic portrait of the boat he built by hand combined with his other hobbies which were: fly fishing, fly tying, gardening, and astronomy.
