Kristin Belew: "Ahi Tail with Finlets

Medium:  Custom Reproduction piece embellished with Prismacolors on rice paper created to order
Size: 20" x 30"

This is a special Gyotaku piece of a 150 lb Ahi Tail.  This fish was landed right off the coastline of Lanaʻi during a sunset trip.  I printed the tail, then used the actual bright yellow finlets to create this piece.  The finlets you see where photographed- then reproduced to create this piece. The original with the actual finlets (harvested from the fish) is on display at the Lanaʻi City Grill.
