January Arts and Crafts 2008

As I suggested in the Poll I put up earlier today this will be a monthly post for everyone to showcase their talents. We have an amazing amount of talent on this board! Everything from Photographers, painters, writers, woodworkers, you name it and I think we have it! Anyhow I think it will be a fun post and I am going to get it started with something that my wife actually made for me. It is a a mosaic of a trout that will become a coffee table top when I get my butt in gear and finish the table.

I look forward to everyones posts here. Let’s do our best to keep it real. I love a joke as much as the next guy believe me but I would hate to see it keep people from posting something they are proud of.

I like it, nice to have a place to throw up a random photo or two without starting a whole thread, might keep more of the good stuff in plain sight longer too.

My first attempt at water color

[Cameron Mortenson]

Joel…Deb does some nice work.

[Zach Matthews]

Cameron – Wow!

[Cameron Mortenson]

Thanks Zach.

[Joel Thompson]

Alan, if that is your first attempt at a water color I am impressed! You certainly didn’t make it easy for yourself did you.

And Cameron I had no idea! It looks to me like you should get back into painting! Nice work! Maybe you could paint up a food shot for the February Arts and Crafts! Ha!

For the rest of you who haven’t posted anything yet lets not let this post die! Zach I am sure that you have taken a great shot or two in the past couple of weeks so lets see what everybody has!

[Joel Thompson]

Damn that is nice Paul! I was really hoping you would post something on this thread. I have been to your site many times and dream of the day I catch the fish and capture it on film so I can have you paint it up for me! 🙂

For Christmas, my wife, whom I love even more now, procured for me one of Paul’s originals. I was completely shocked, which is a change since typically I am forced to circle the desired product in a catalogue and accidentally leave it on her desk. Anyway, I now proudly sport a PP painting next to my tying desk, but I will not dirty his work with a digital photo.

Hey Paul, show ’em what I have hanging here.
