Brookie is the most boldly chromatic painting in Ram Lee's celebrated flank series — a deep, richly saturated close-up of the brook trout's magnificent flank that moves from deep forest green at the top, alive with golden spots and the species' distinctive worm-like vermiculations, through vibrant chartreuse and yellow into a blazing band of orange and crimson at the base. The result is simultaneously one of the most accurate portrayals of this beloved fish and one of Ram Lee's most purely expressive works of color and texture. A natural companion to Rainbow Trout Flank and Brown Brook Trout Flank, Brookie completes a trio of flank paintings that together make a stunning and cohesive statement for any art or fishing enthusiast.
