When two Barnard College classmates visited my studio recently one of them purchased this beautiful fish painting for her home in North Carolina.

"Stripped Bass Acrylic Painting"

Stripped bass are one of my favorite fish to eat but they're only really good fresh out of the ocean. When I was a kid my father would catch five or six big ones off the South Jersey shore. And then when I lived on East 17th Street in New York I'd go to the Italian fish markets on First Avenue and buy whole stripped bass which made a spectacular meal with their heads and tails still on. But later in Maine I discovered that people there called them dogfish and wouldn't eat them because they thought they were too oily. Happily we have them again here in California but they're much smaller.

"Blue Green Fish Quilt" machine stitched by Sherry Miller

For many years I've made  'quilts' by assembling a group of paintings on paper and then stitching them together on a sewing machine to make quilts. The quilts are framed under glass and hang on the wall, that is, they don't cover your bed! Fish themes have always been the most popular. This piece will be displayed in a juried show at the Marin Art and Garden Center in Ross, California, April 6-26, 2014.

Channel Bass Fish Painting by Sherry Miller

I started a series of large fish paintings in 2013. This Channel Bass is still my favorite one. They are all on loose canvas (rather than stretched canvas) and I like tossing them around like blanket throws or hanging them up with push pins and moving them from wall to wall.

Tropical Fish Painting (Bodianus Rufus)

Most of the fish I paint are salt water fish whose colors are so much more mild than tropical fish. But this fellow got in my repetoire before I was thinking about tropical fish. He'll have some pals up here soon enough.
