    Media coverage for Michael Reimer Fish Prints 

    American Angler: A nice little article about me and one of my recent rubbings (a brown trout) appeared in the March/April 2010 issue of American Angler magazine, page 16.  Article reprinted with permission from American Angler.

    Philadelphia Inquirer - I was featured in their monthly 'Portrait of an Artist' article on October 29th, 2009 - click this link to see the article which includes two photos - http://www.philly.com/inquirer/magazine/20091028_Portrait_of_an_Artist__Portrait_of_an.html

    Arizona Wildlife Views: I was commissioned to create a vertical piece with multiple black crappie for the cover of Arizona Wildlife Views.  The piece was custom since they needed room at the top to include the magazine title.  I created three separate pieces for them and they picked the one that fit their needs.  Click on the thumbnail on the right to see a better image.

    Field and Stream: I was interviewed for an article in the July 2007 Field and Stream.  The author, Dave Hartung, wrote a 'how to' article about fish printing after I had given him some instruction.  A picture with two of my original gyotaku appears with the article.  Article reprinted with permission from Field and Stream.
