With more than 2 million T-shirts sold, Alaskan artist Ray Troll puts his classics on display in this collection of his greatest hits.
Artist Ray Troll has developed a huge cult following for his humorous and scientifically accurate paintings of fish and fossils. He has successfully carved out his own category of artwork -- colorful pen and ink drawings about fish, fish worship, evolution, paleontology, and dinosaurs -- all humorously captioned and technically accurate. Over a three-decade career, he has exhibited in all major scientific museums in America and managed to sell more than 2 million T-shirts along the way. This collection of the artist's most popular T-shirt art features captions such as "Spawn Till You Die," "Cowasockeye," "The Baitful Dead," "Fish Worship: Is It Wrong," and "Tortured Sole." Ray Troll's appeal is both funky and funny.
Ray Troll is a visual artist who blends ichthyology, paleontology, and humor to create paintings that have been exhibited at the California Academy of the Sciences, the Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences, the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh, and the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, among others. Troll lives in Ketchikan, AK.
