    The Month in Fish Pictures" ~Year 6~ July Addition 2014!!!!!!!


    Happy Summer from Hinsdale New Hampshire!!! I where ever you may be I hope the weather is being kind and not to hot to soon to you one and all! Happy Independence day to all those who enjoy freedom and believe that all folks are created equal!
    As it is in the month July there is a few more shows on the calendar and I will be at one the end of this month in North Carolina! The convention will be July 31-August 2 in Clemmons, NC and this is a must see show and a very cool show if you have not attended before!

    The Annual 4th of July FREE Anglers Artistry DVD will be available for viewing Starting at 12:00 Am midnight of the 4th so tune in as one of the views will be awarded the next in the GOLDEN Ticket all inclusive workshop give away! Check in on our facebook account for more details as the date grows closer.

    I want to throw out a special thank you to Matt Marulli who has stepped down after several years as president of the New England Association of Taxidermist (NEAT). I want to mention the outstanding work Matt and all the members of this association have put in to make it a fine association and here’s to Mike Ryan for the years to come!

    Again want to commend all of you, as there are so many original contributors and many new ones alike that all share in this great string that has been around from over 5 years! I just want to remind and assure folks that we all begin some where and work hard at being the best we can all be as taxidermists. It is and always has been a spot on the taxidermy.net where folks can and do come to show there work with out criticism and hard comments! So lets remember to always keep it that way. As the moderator of this section I do not get to involved with censorship not do I ever want too. So be respectful of all and remember we all have a long way to go and should be enjoying the processes!

    What a truly outstanding Month in Fish pictures this past last month as I took some time during the day week to see all the great looking at some truly inspiring works of fish art!

    We share in fish pictures to find a common place with friendliness and positive comments of motivation as a great place to start in upward in direction of inspiration in being a fish taxidermist! I wish all the best to folks competing in the up coming year and I do wish all the very best in the pursuits of good fish work!

    I do hope you have the opportunity to be thankful for your gifts of great passion and talent as an artist! It is a blessing to me for our lives to be joined from time to time to share and learn from one another so thank you for your great taxidermy work and my your lives continue to be blessed with inspiration!!!!

    I want to personally say thank you for letting me join you again each installment of Fish Pictures to share in your successes and accomplishments! I have seen first hand the great strides so many have made with beautiful fish work! Good for you and congratulations on your hard work!!!!

    I want to also thank all of the great contributors who not only share their personal great talents and work but also rather give such positive inspiration to all of us!

    From beginner's to the best in the world we all join in every month in a critique free and hassle free string with nothing more then great artist and inspiring fish taxidermist and carves get together to share with one another their praise and inspiration of good will and friendship to one another. No egos just friendly folks who appreciate the efforts of others!

    I want to start the month of July with the winning fish of the most recent Anglers Artistry Cool fish photo contest for June! Each month folks have the opportunity to share their work just like the month in Fish pictures but with a chance to win stuff and have fun there too! Truly inspiring work from all over the world that we all share and I want to share the work of the two winners this past month as the votes ended in a tie (first time) so congratulations to Mr. Jesse Shadley of North Pole Alaska and to Mr. Chris Teague of Lake Orion, MI! I also want to introduce a new Fishhead to the world and family of fishheads all over the world Ms. Anya Gorzniski of Ludington, Michigan the most recent Anglers Artistry Family member!
    Please enjoy the month of July and the inspiring fish photos supplies by all the great fishheads from all over the world! Have a great month!

    So here goes!

    I hope you enjoy the Month! See you in August!!!

    So here we go and here is to a great July and a great Month in fish pictures!!!! Enjoy!
