Very few people know this, but Ian dabbles in art. He draws quite a bit and works in watercolor as well. This has always just been strictly for himself with no intention of selling anything. In fact, he keeps a pad in his backpack almost all the time. When he’s alone on the stream or in the woods he’ll often pause to draw.

Ian also enjoys working with watercolors. Our house has paintings tacked up all over, dangling by a corner like elementary school projects. Again, trout, wildlife and fly fishing are his favorite subjects.
A few watercolors
I’ve been encouraging Ian to show off some of this and more, so be sure to let us know what you think!
