I have been using my
Canon Pro9000 Mark II series printer to print archival pigment prints on Strathmore 90lb watercolor paper note cards for a while now. Last past year I donated sets of
flower,
trout patterns and
salmon fly cards to Trout Unlimited, library and other local groups for their fund raisers.
This year I decided to try something different. I downloaded a template for a wrap around mug and painted four watercolors; Brown trout, Rainbow trout, Brook trout and Cutthroat trout.
I tried to create images that looked active. The scanned 300 dpi images were uploaded to a commercial web site to be printed on mugs mugs.
I loved the way the mugs turned out, the colors closely match the original watercolors and the fish look great wrapped around a mug.
The mugs will be donated to local
Trout Unlimited chapters for their fund raising events.
