Jaron's Miracle

I was asked by my lifelong friend, Alan, to paint this scene of Jaron, his brother and dad of a recent fishing trip. Jaron just found out that he has a serious health issue that will threaten his life. Alan provided the opportunity for these three to take a day off and to leave the stress of Jaron's condition behind, and to focus on catching some really big fish. This scene is of the last, and biggest fish of the day. As it turns out, it was miraculous … the hooking, fighting and landing of this magnificent fish. The smiles on their faces is truly a blessing of relief from their trials and afflictions.
