Tom and Huck Fishing

I painted this for an illustration of the story of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. I used it in a portfolio presentation to Hallmark Cards. I was devastated at the the time, I didn't get a job there, but in a way, I'm glad I didn't. My work is really not greeting card type stuff. I didn't know that then. It is done from my imagination. This painting is in the Lawrence Glavin Collection in Kansas City.

  2. Thank you cjc. This is an older work fron the 1980's, I had a different style then. I used to work as an armed guard in a bank. I had plenty of time to day dream.
