Steelhead

Flick Ford hooks almost every fish he paints. The resulting fish portraits are, on one hand classical reminiscent of 19th century color plates, on the other hand they are very contemporary, featuring minute detail, shimmering iridescence, eye-popping depth and a genuine spirit of life never before captured in fine art prints. The Steelhead (oncorhynchus mykiss) is the anadromous (migrating) form of rainbow trout, native to the western North American coast and the Pacific Coast of Asia.
