Due
to numerous requests over the past several years from people that
wanted his artwork at an affordable price, Mr. Langlois agreed to
start producing a limited amount of signed and numbered lithographs.
His first series are a selection of four colored action sports fishing
pictures and four pen & ink landscapes. He is presently working
on a second series that will be released by the third quarter of
2004.

Marlin
Explosion:
This
watercolor is from a photograph taken from a friend of mine. He
took it while fishing in the Keys. I intentionally distorted the
water so you would focus on the Marlin.
Blue
Marlin Jumping:
With
this watercolor I wanted to show a storm just leaving the area with
the clouds changing from dark and stormy, to light and calm. In
the Florida Keys, storms come up quickly, turning up the water and
darkening up the sky. I believed that I captured the way the sky
and water looks when a squall leaves the area.
Tarpon
in the Weeds:
Tarpon
fishing in south Florida is quite popular and I thought that they
were an interesting fish to paint. When I was almost done with this
painting, I noticed that there was a perfectly round black spot
in the upper left portion of the painting. When I saw it, I was
so upset that I was going to throw it away and start over again.
Just before I tore it up, I realized that the spot looked like an
eye, so I painted a blue fish being startled. It adds additional
interest to the work and I was pleased with the final outcome.
Sailfish
Leaping:
I
only used three colors on this painting, blue, black and white.
I wanted to keep the pallet simple, while still showing action.
By keeping the pallet limited to just a couple of colors, it tests
you ability as an artist. I was pleased with the way I captured
the water and the way the fish is fighting the line. This is the
third painting of action sports-fishing pictures in this set of
lithographs.
