OK gang I uncapped the artistic juices and played with a new Idea but might be too mystice. I am working on this years Charity Rods and the one I did this on is for Lori Byron and the Chuck Byron Memorial Tournament of which the proceeds go to young artists.(Children) I do one every year with a weave made from one of Chucks paintings. This year I modified his Halibut on the sand. I need your input. PLEASE let me know what you think and if I should finish it up and continue onto the Tiger which will be on both sides of the weave.

Oh also while doing the pictures of the weave and flattening it in photo shop I did a video which I will post in the near future when I get it edited and put together. You can see in the pic of the weave how I cut the ends of the threads so I can make a smoothe tie off wrap.
