About the Artist

Jerry Tanner has been a graphic designer for more than 30 years and has been selling his art for the past nine years. Interested in art for as long as he can remember, Jerry earned his degree in graphic communication at San Diego State University.

In 2006, his previous art series, "Toucan King of the Yucatan" enjoyed success in Santa Cruz, California. The self-published children's book You Can Do What a Toucan Can Do Too! is available at blurb.com.

Today, his new and growing series "The Modern Fly" is a perfect fit for him. "While I've always enjoyed fishing, I have never had the pleasure of learning the art of fly fishing. But I've always admired the art of both the sport and the many fly patterns that are used for the lures. Combining my art with a sport that I've always enjoyed is the best of both worlds."
