Mahi Mahi fish metal art on wood wall decor Made in USA salt water fish

You’re dreaming about your next fishing expedition, aren’t you? The one to the tropics where you’ll cast that line, in search of that hard-to-catch Mahi Mahi, huh? No doubt, it will grab at your line, but be ready, it will always put up a strong fight. To catch one is equivalent to winning a trophy in a sporting match you’ve long prepared for, so those who do deserve the glory.

Knowing the Mahi Mahi, AKA dolphin fish, is a popular game fish from the coasts of the Florida Keys to the depths of the oceans that surround Hawaii, I knew I wanted to create it in artistic form. You’ll see rustic wood as the backdrop and a steel overlay topper that frames the contrasts in the wood grains. I’m an artist and designed this Mahi Mahi wall plaque in my Minnesota metal and woodworking shop.

This Mahi Mahi fish sculpture art:

• Was made using rustic stained wood and clear-coated steel, sourced locally from small businesses

• Is primarily for indoor display, but could be used outdoors if displayed in a covered area

• May be hung by the sawtooth hanger on the back or propped on a shelf or table

Reach out to me if you have an idea for a special work of art using wood or metal. I’ll be happy to work out the details with you and create a work of art you’ll love as a gift or display in your space. And, have a look at my other artistic pieces, mostly nature-themed and sports team wall décor, but also some religious and Americana.
