It's a shame that I did not get what I ordered this one. Your company ended up sending another one in its place without my approval and I got stuck with 2 shirts of the same thing very disappointed with. This company should I even had correspondence with the customer service of John with your company and said they were gonna? Take care of it don't worry while here. It is a week later and I still haven't received it and still waiting for it for my grandson.

THE FLYING FISH OF CRETE
Inspired by a Cretan wall mural at Phylakopi in Melos, c. 1500 B.C., this fresco is a solid example of the Cretans' portrayal of a marine life nature scene. The composition consists of fish with wing-like fins, gliding through the water amongst strange-shaped objects, which may be interpreted as floating pebbles, and rocks lining the sea floor. Other designs here may represent seaweed. The blue, yellow and white colors were commonly used in many frescoes during the late Minoan/early Mycenaean era.

BIO American artist Steve Bogdanoff is a master in replicating the fresco form. Originally influenced by ancient Greek art, Steve's career has flourished over the past 32 years, earning him international recognition in his field. "My initial introduction to fresco art came during my studies of the Minoan civilization, circa 1500BC. The artists on the island of Thera were innovators in utilizing color from the earth, and their free style of drawing and interpretation of subject matter was brilliant. I believe that art as we know it today was borne from these ancient artists, and I honor them through my work."
