About Blackfish AK

About the artist :

A lifelong Alaskan, Seth Blankenship loves to share his adventures and outdoor pursuits in Alaska with family and friends.

As an avid flyfishermen and hunter he has a deep respect and appreciation for the flora and fauna unique to the Alaskan wilderness.

Many years ago, he found a love for the Japanese style of Gyotaku fish printing and decided to give it a try with his wife Molly….

The result has given him the ability to capture a single unique fish or creature for a lifetime of enjoyment in the form of memories through art.

Seth hopes you enjoy each piece as much as he has enjoyed creating it through the generations old process , known as Gyotaku.

ABOUT THE ART-

Each unique print is a one of a kind fish caught by the artist.

Once satisfied with the final result, the  natural sumi ink is then washed off and the fish prepared for a special meal to share with friends and family.

Nothing is left to waste, the memory of the catch, the surroundings of Alaska and the fish itself are captured for a lifetime of enjoyment.

These prints can be passed down for generations to enjoy and revel in the beauty of Alaska’s underwater world.

Note: you can contact Seth and Blackfish Alaska to request commissioned projects of your own Alaskan caught fish.
