Description

“Freshwater Rainbow trout” abstract oil painting on canvas. It is hard to determine the painting style once I get the idea of painting fishes. I try to avoid realistic shape and shift to more abstract style. After the “Backyard birds” series, I would like to try my freshwater fish, Walleye, Largemouth bass and Rainbow trout in the similar way.

Because people are so familiar with fish, even without an anatomy class, our brain will identify it less than a blink of eye. So, again, I give enough unique feature for each species. For instance, shape of dorsal fin, body pattern and tail structure.

As to the species, Walleye, Largemouth bass and Rainbow trout are popular and common freshwater fishes in Minnesota. Each year, Minnesota Department of Nature Recourse (DNR) will have hand book of fish species in most of the lake and river. It is a fun activity for both grown up and kids.

Although I tried my best to match the digital image the same as actual painting but the color may vary due to different monitor and monitor settings. Please be aware of this fact.

I hope you enjoy this “Freshwater fish Rainbow trout” abstract oil painting on canvas.

Please message me for any question.
Thank you.

My paintings are an outlet to express the imagination I have inside my head that I can not put into words. After trying many mediums, I always find myself coming back to paint and brushes. In my current artistic practice, I use oil paint and mainly create portraits of mythical creatures and animals transfixed in the shifting colours of seascapes and landscapes. There is a natural spirit and magic to these creatures and their energy draws me in. Choosing to paint these creatures as real living wildlife rather than abstractions, I use bold and vivid colours to express the imaginary intertwined with reality, finding magic between the seams. Using a saturated colour palette, I create bold and striking imagery, contrasted between foreground and background, subject and landscape, and light and darkness. Weaving their bodies and the surface of the landscape into each other through organic forms and flowing brush strokes, I find beauty, strength and innocence in these creatures that reflect my inner world.
