Reeling in the Memories is a painting of a place in the Florida Keys. I've been by this place a few times and love how it still has an old school vibe. While creating the painting I purposely made it look like an old photograph. Different from my usual approach, but I feel I needed to capture that nostalga.

From thier website: Established in 1944 and home to over 40 legendary fishing captains and guides, it is the oldest and largest fishing fleet in the Florida Keys Fishing industry.
Islamorada is known as the Sportfishing Capital of the World, and rightfully so. More world record fish have been caught from our waters than any other location on earth. What facilitates Islamorada’s reputation is that the Atlantic Ocean, Florida Bay, and the Gulf of Mexico all surround this island in the central Keys. Every fish that swims in our hemisphere can be caught here. Fishing in the Keys is an angler’s dream come true!
