Joeph R. Tomelleri: Fishy Business

[Texas Star]

Fish Art by Joe Tomelleri

I think this guy is the greatest illustrator of fish, ever. Browse his site and click on his prints and calendars.
His work is simply stunning in its reality.

Does anyone else here get his calendars or other art?

I buy Eileen Klatt whenever she has a new issue... my house is full of her work...

I'm more into saltwater fishing and a big fan of the late Chuck Byron. RIP.

Every year I get some of his shirts at the shows.

Check the all images sales button on his (Tomelleri's) site. I know he has Atlantic salmon and striped bass prints.

I'm more into his trout and salmon prints. I think I'm going to order a print of his Kern River Rainbow.

I have framed prints by James Zimmerman of a pheasant, wood ducks, and a steelhead trout, and some other prints by unknown artists. (Murghab pheasants and lions.) Believe it or not, I got some at Target years ago, and they're very decent quality.

I'm also fond of those glasses, some of loop optic glass, that Orvis used to sell, with game animals and fish on them, hand painted. I hand wash them to minimize wear to the images.

Klatt is very good, but less realistic than Tomelleri. Thanks for the look at her work.

Her early stuff labled "Old Favorites" from the late 80's are very realistic. I have the entire set. I particularly like the "Brook Trout"...
