950 Edition 12 3/4" x 9 1/2"

About 20 years ago, in this small southeast Alaska village of Pelican, I saw two fish buyers discussing business on the cold-storage dock. I sketched them and followed that up with a painting. Two years ago I spent over a week sketching in Pelican, and to my amazement saw two fish buyers in the exact same spot. I quickly skethced them and di this painting. I take photos of all my paintings and dug up the first one. They dind't alike in the least bit. Furthermore, the first one looked like it could easilt have been painted by another artist. Such is the transformation of art over time.
