"Wanted to give a shout-out to Richard Powers for his talent and help in the creation of the Bull Bay Rods logo. Can't wait to see more hand-drawn creations being designed for BBRods."


After a long exile in the "real world", I spotted an advertisement in the local newspaper for a painting workshop and was encouraged to attend. There I met the legendary landscape/wildlife painter, Richard Powers. With his contagious enthusiasm for the beauty of nature, his endless patience, and by providing me with the unique opportunity to meet and paint with such incredible artists as Robert Butler and many others, I began to bloom and fall in love with the art of drawing and painting all over again."     website of Sheri Fox www.sheristudio.com
