I've painted a series of rays - some common rays, some spotted eagle rays and some made up rays with lots of colors. They're fun to paint and there are so many different ways to paint them. This painting is the classic symbiotic relationship between a stingray and a permit that you will encounter many times if you have ever fished for permit with a flyrod. The permit will stalk the ray waiting for the ray to kick up edible sea life as they feed along the bottom. The permit is much more agile and will usually eat better than the ray.

Vaughn Cochran

Regarded as one of the best and more innovative artists in the world of
fishing art, Vaughn’s current groups of pencil drawings, watercolors, mixed
media, acrylic and oil paintings would be classified as contemporary sporting
art and represents the last 20 years of his work. He was trained as a fine
artist, taught at a university and his portfolio now spans over 40 years.

A multifaceted artist, he is skilled in many mediums including painting in
oil and watercolor, ceramic sculpture, art pottery, printmaking, intaglio,
silkscreen, woodcarving, batik and metal working and casting.

His contemporary sporting art reflects the world of professional fishing
where Vaughn was a fly-fishing guide for many years. “In my travels, I always
had my camera and sketch book”, says Vaughn “I’ve filled several journals with
ideas and notes for paintings and sculptures that revolve around fish and life
on the water.”
