Underwater Painting "I've wanted to try painting underwater for a long time, close to thirty years. 'Mellow Yellow Muskie' is the second piece which I painted in the St.Clair River. I try to create each piece in a single dive." "Mellow Yellow Muskie" is currently the only underwater painting available for sale.
