"Hardware Fly" I have been slowly cleaning up and organizing my workshop. I am putting all the hardware in parts bins. All kinds of sorted hardware was laying on top of my workbench. They were just begging to be fashioned into a fly.
This is one of my favorites just because it's so unexpected. It got me to wondering what kind of fish might go after such a fly. I'm really glad you're doing this theme for the year. It is continually inspiring.
I initiated the creation of this blog as a challenge. The challenge is to draw a fly a day for an entire year. Part of the challenge is the discipline to accomplish this every day and the other is to expand my creativity and to help find my artistic voice. The sky is the limit on how the flies will be created. You may have wondered, "why is he drawing flies?" My other hobby is fly fishing and fly tying. I also welcome the challenge of drawing the natural materials that are used in the flies. So hang on and enjoy the ride for the next 365 days!
Send Your Fly Suggestions
I need your help!Please email me your suggestions for flies to draw. Every month, the names of those who suggested a fly and I created drawings from their suggestions, will be placed in a monthly drawing. The winner of the drawing will receive a personally sign print of their choice from the flies drawn that month.

Your fly series is just terrific and so creative. I like them all. It's funny that you made one out of workshop odds and ends.
