Hand-Painted Rainbow Trout on Real Alaskan Bear Bread Mushroom | One-of-a-Kind Art from Alaska
This is not your average painting — it’s a one-of-a-kind piece of Alaskan wilderness, featuring a vibrant rainbow trout hand-painted on a real Bear Bread mushroom, harvested straight from Alaska’s backyard.
The Artwork
Known for their power and color, rainbow trout are a prized catch in Alaska, growing to impressive sizes in our cold, clean waters. This painting captures their iridescent beauty in detail — a tribute to one of Alaska’s most iconic fish.
Set on a naturally preserved Bear Bread mushroom (Fomes fomentarius), the painting is rich in texture and earthy character. Measuring approximately 6 x 9 inches, it's a rustic, nature-inspired piece perfect for trout lovers, fly fishers, or anyone who appreciates Alaska’s wild charm.
What Makes It Special
-
Bear Bread mushrooms (also called tinder fungus) are a rare and unique canvas, once used by Indigenous Alaskans for starting fires and making art.
-
I personally hand harvested this mushroom, dried and cured over time to create a lightweight yet durable surface for painting.
