IF: Entangled (174-179)

Here's my Illustration Friday submission for Entangled. Every once in a while I get to go fishing and I think anyone who has fished from an embankment has either been victim to this or seen the evidence of someone else's misfortune.

In my drawing, the limbs are entangled and the lure has found its way into the mess.

I've been working on a new painting and continue to work on a very large house drawing. Hope everyone had a great thanksgiving.

  1. This is wonderful! Not being a fisherman, but more of a hiker, my first reaction was "Ouch!".

  9. Hi Dave! Your drawings and paintings are so detailed and impressive. Your 'entanglement' brings back a fond memory for me of being up at a friends cottage and heading out into the very rustic brush for a canoe ride. Much of the ride, not only the start, was so much work to keep from getting tangled up in branches that seemed to be coming from everywhere. But it was fun, and sooo muddy!
