It is a strange thing to try to duplicate a painting you have already done. I have attempted it a couple of times when people have wanted to purchase a painting that was no longer available. For a painting like this it is especially difficult. The original [which can be seen on my facebook and flickr portfolios] was painted two years ago and donated to Art Incognito. I never got a picture of it before framing it so I photoshoped the crappy photo I took of it in its frame under glass.
So I find myself trying to re-create a painting that I dont really remember exactly, using a doctored photo. hmmmm.
So what do you think? Is it done? What else should I do to it? I changed the fish in the painting to a Sockeye rather than a Coho,[or whatever it was.] I have stuck to the same color palette and tried to keep the same concept in mind while painting, but with a painting like this I just dont know....Any suggestions?

I don't think that it will matter if it is exact or not alesha.
Maybe more importantly, try and remember the feeling you had when you painted the original. :)
Thanks Ken
The customer loved it!
