Stephen Mutsugoroh DiCerbo is a Master Printmaker, Science Illustrator and Fine Artist who works in the Adirondack Mountains of Northern New York State, USA.
MessageThis is a Pen and Ink and Wash Illustration of a Brown Trout (Salmo trutta). Brown Trout are not native to North America, first brought to NYC from Germany and Scotland in 1883. From there, they were distributed across the Continent. They are true trout, related to Atlantic Salmon. Brown trout have many variants in Europe and the near east.
This Illustration was first drawn with rapidograph pens on Bristol board, fully stippled, with different values being achieved through different density of dots. Stippling is a greyscale version of pointilism, or divisionism, where colors are applied in dots but to the eye, blend together when observed from a distance. Color is added here with thin transparent washes of ink or resin based colors, applied in layers
