From Deb Clarke-
Hello there! I just finished my commission and thought you might like to see it. It is dedicated to the memory of my friend Captain Eddie Lima from whom I first heard of St. Peter’s thumbprint. The painting is of hake. 24×36″, 2 panes of cold glass painted in reverse, with hand silvered mirror, off set on a stretched canvas backing. the black drawing lines are drawn with a Sharpie Marker on the front of the glass.
Now you know why I love your fish pics.

Good Morning Gloucester 
Debbie creates such beautiful and unique Art!
My father told us that the marks on a haddock were St. Peters thumbprints when he picked the fish out of the ocean.
