Largemouth Bass - Word Mosaic Art Print

Word Mosaic Art Print by Curtis Epperson

A CLOSER LOOK AT THE ARTWORK

Every fisherman has a fish that got away. This one stays on the wall.

The water can look perfectly still right up until it isn’t.

Curtis built this Largemouth Bass from 104 different words and phrases that belong to the fish and the chase.

Lurks In The Weeds. Master Of The Ambush. Leaps From The Water. Strikes Without Warning. Thrashing. Trophy Fish.

There is even a phrase for the one worth remembering:

Legendary Catch.

Curtis spent 22 hours drawing those words into the fish, one letter at a time.

From across the room, you see the catch.

Up close, you find the entire chase hiding inside it.

$30.00 USD

A certificate of authenticity with the complete word list, together on one sheet.

Unframed art print. The white border is part of the print.

INSIDE THE ARTWORK

This one gave me the vocabulary of the chase.

Detail of the original hand-drawn lettering in Largemouth Bass

Lettering detail from Largemouth Bass.

The Largemouth Bass had a word list with a lot of movement in it.

Lurks In The Weeds. Master Of The Ambush. Leaps From The Water. Strikes Without Warning. Thrashing.

Then there were the fishing words: Bait, Cast, Hook, Line, Lure, Rod And Reel, Tackle and Trophy Fish.

I used 104 different words and phrases and spent 22 hours drawing them into the finished bass.

I like that the fish itself is still.

But when you start reading what it is made from, the whole scene suddenly feels like it is about to happen.
