I just recently finished My basement, now I would like to find some nice Bay photographs
Preferably Black and white. I was thinking of some classic thomas point photos or something.
Thanks in advanced

Go with a nice Herb Jones print. He was an avid fisherman and painted many of the scenes we all love. Known for his wildlife and landscapes he sold over a half a million prints in this area. His son Louis Jones owns the Jones Art Gallery in Virginia Beach and i work there as well. I am an artist and Herbs grandson. Another bonus is that his work has always gone up in value since 1950. He did a light house series of every light house from this area to North Carolina. If you wanna go with photos thats cool but check it out I hope you enjoy. You can see some of his work easily on Jonesart.com, but they dont look as good as in person. My work is on there as well IM Ryan I have one of the sun rising over the bay bridge tunnel called "Rising" Take care.

Maria's Picture place on Maryland ave. Has a lot of ME Warren's pitcures already framed up. She was a friend of his. There's a lady that is at all the boat shows ( prob. Baltimore) and she has fabulus photos of the bay, mostly color.

Thanks Ryan.
Some nice work there. I will share that with my wife, we certainly will take you and your grandfathers work into concideration.
Thanks, Taylor

Andy,
I made the metal art in those pictures. I made that sort of artwork for quite a few years.
I "retired" from the artwork last year.
I have a Protégé who is now producing the work on his own....with a little help from time to time.
The piece you mentioned with the two rockfish chasing the school of menhaden sold years ago. If you wanted a piece like that I'm sure my friend would make one for you.

The rockfish are about 20" long and the school fish are 6". It would sell for about $700.
If you are interested send a PM.

The pieces that I posted are only a small sample. I made hundreds of pieces over the years. If you would be interested in seeing more I have a CD with a few hundred pieces.
I'd be glad to send one to you.
