Gyotaku Fish Print by Harley Van Hyning
Destin FL artist, Harley Van Hyning, is known best for his work as a GYOTAKU artist. Gyotaku is an ancient form of Japanese art that translates to "fish rubbing" - which works nicely for this artist who grew up on Florida's Emerald Coast. This is a print of an actual fish that was caught in the Gulf of Mexico. Harley paints the fish right there on the dock straight off the boat, using acrylic paint and then presses the canvas onto the fish to document the catch. He typically details the artwork further in his studio before adding the handmade frame.
