2018 Art Partnership with Contender Boats for Homestead Nascar Race
For the second year, I have partnered with Contender Boats of Miami Florida to design a boat that is awarded to the winner of the 2018 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Championship. A couple years ago, the boat I designed the artwork for went to Jimmie Johnson. This year, Joey Logano took home the championship and his new Contender Bay Boat. The boat was unveiled at the Ft. Lauderdale International Boat show a couple weeks ago and was on display at the race track near the winners circle. Here's a photo of the boat before the boat show:
Everglades Morning
I made it out to the park with my buddy Damian a couple days ago to fish a few hours. We spent the morning fishing the glades, the snook bite has been great.

Sold the sketch within the hour of when I posted it to a client in Spring Texas; he's headed to LA to fish in a couple weeks. The...
Hand Painted Redfish Mount!!!
When Adam Miller from CCA Florida asked if I could paint a redfish mount for them I was stoked! It was a little more difficult than I anticipated, but I think it turned out sweet. Seeing my artwork come to life in 3D was awesome. This mount was purchased in a live auction by Capt. Rick Murphy, host of "Sportsman's Adventures" and the "Chevy Insider Fishing Report" and is now proudly displayed in his home. Capt Rick is a big supporter of CCA Florida and has supported my artwork throughout the years. I'd like to thank Rick and Kathy for...
Print Signing at FGCU with CCA Florida
CCA Florida had me come out and do a print signing at Florida Gulf Coast University for their Eagles Chapter Banquet. I was the first Featured artist at the inaugural year for the Eagles chapter, so it was great to come back again. I had a blast, it was cool catching up with those guys. Here are a few photos from the event: Until next time.... -Eric
