The Fishing Hole - boys in dory on summer day by nostalgia artist Morgan Weistling

 
The Fishing Hole  by artist Morgan Weistling available from Prickly Pear Galleries.
"The Fishing Hole" is a unique, personal homage to brotherly love and childhood magic. "I was originally going to title this painting 'Brothers',” explains artist Morgan Weistling. "It is as much about the joy of fishing as it is about the bonding experience that fishing allows. I painted it in memory of my older brother, Steve. I have fond memories of him teaching me all of the things he knew about fishing and camping. I painted the older brother with his hand on the younger boy's shoulder representing that protection that I always felt when I was with Steve. It was pretty handy having a brother that was 6' 4".

"I painted that moment when a fish has just taken its first bite, the line gives that pull and the excitement jumps into your throat. The experienced older brother is a little more collected and amused with his brother's reaction. When I was this age I remember letting out quite a few whoops of joy while out in our dingy but my big brother was always there to make sure the fish made it into the boat.”
