It won’t be that long until The 2012 Association of Indiana Taxidermist Show and Convention!!!

This is my one and only Hands on Seminar in the Mid West this year where you can work with me Hands on to learn and go home with some new knowledge and few new items that you and I will do together. 

In this is a special hand’s on event I will be jamming a complete day full of live instruction for this workshop! The workshop is limited to few participants so this is an opportunity to have very close to a one on one hands on workshop as you would have with me in NH but where you conveniently only have to travel to you Association Convention!

What will you get for you time and money for the day! Included in your all day workshop is some thing special I cooked up for you all!
I will have for you a unique session covering not only painting but you will receive your very own Instructional Anglers Artistry Trout Head that I have made exclusively for you for the express learning tool!   

I belive it is critical to in great fish work to be able to paint and set a custom eye so we will cover and properly understand how to set an eye just as we teach folks here at Angler’s Artistry!

You and I together will custom paint your very own Brown trout eye as well as practice setting eyes with me during this workshop day!

During your day with me in addition to custom eye painting and setting we will custom paint one side of your Brown trout head so you can learn the Painting system we teach here at Angler Artistry for all of the cold water fish!

After lunch you will get to sit back take some note’s and take photo’s as I will show you how I go about painting a 24” Spawning brown trout which I will be donating back to your Association to help raise money for your great convention! 

There will be lots of different techniques and for sure the use of lots of very different paint mediums I use to teach with At Anglers Artistry!
It will be a fun filled day that will end with you going home with not only lots of knowledge but you will have a your own Anglers Artistry Practice head to work with as well!

As a Bonus each participant will receive a complementary copy of the Anglers Artistry Master Paining systems Reproduction Brown Trout DVD to take home with you as being part of this exclusive workshop! Join me Rick Krane and be a part of the Association of Indiana Taxidermist Show and Convention!!! Also a Participation Anglers Artistry Certificate will be handed out at this Hands on workshop and you will be a new Member of the Anglers Artistry Family!

Re-cap of the day this day is going to be for your workshop!

•   Hands On Custom Brown Trout Eye Painting
•   Hands On Custom Eye Setting!
•   Airbrush Assembly and maintenance!
•   Hands One Brown Trout Head Painting
•   Lunch
•   Instructional Spawning 24” Brown Trout Reproduction painting; Rick Krane
•   Question and Answer season
•   Exclusive Workshop Certificates of Taxidermy Training
•   Presentation of your Free Anglers Artistry Reproduction Brown Trout DVD!!!

I know with great confidence that this day will be a great Value not only of Knowledge but also as hands on material you can take home as well as fun and friendship!
Seats are limited and as I mentioned this is my only Mid West appearance for a Hands One participation workshop with me this year! I rarely do hands on workshop on the road any longer due to my Schedule but when our Good friend, fellow Anglers Artistry family Member, your Association President Mr. Brad Jones asked me to do this for the Association of Indian Taxidermist so how could I say any thing but yes!!!

See you soon!

My Best!
