I have been painting funky fish since 2023 but obsessed with fishing long before.
I blame my obsession with fishing on my fanatical fisherman father, that’s why my business is named after him: Fin-Neato. I was inspired from the ‘finito’ Italian word since my dad loved his Italian heritage.
I spent my undergraduate years in Missoula, Montana where I realized the beauty of the West. Then I discovered so many incredible places that happen to have really good fishing spots too. I guess stumbling upon a painting passion was bound to happen. Luckily, I have thousands of fish images burned into my brain to spark the next painting.
I can’t wait to see what’s next for Fin-Neato!!

Every product is designed with wanting to be unique in this beautiful world of art. The aprons, shirts and hats are selected to be functional with style. I’m able to buy small quantities of products so that your purchase isn’t something everyone else will own, it’s authentic. I also press each design onto the aprons, shirts, hats, sling bags and all other clothing myself. It’s literally all handmade art.
Prints
Prints are available in two sizes: 8.5” x 14” or 13” x 19”
Park Street Printers in Butte, Montana creates original-like replicas using fine art paper and high-end ink. Custom prints can be arranged.
Custom Framed Prints
I’m able to frame everything from 4 x 6 to 13 x 19 prints for you. I scour the shops for unique frames made from granite to sand stone to barnwood. I’m able to paint the frames and match your color preference.
Aprons
The aprons are custom made in my basement. The material will protect you without being too heavy.
Hats
Similar to the aprons and shirts, I’m able to custom make each hat. I want you to not only love the style of the hat, but also the Fin-Neato funky fish or rooster art. There are so many abstract or traditional approaches to designing the hats, you get to choose!!
Sun Shirts
In my quest to find the most comfortable, practical and affordable sun protection shirt out there, I'm scouring the internet and shops.
I hope to have smaller quantities with more variety, even though there may not be a hundred of the same design.
Sling Bags aka Fanny Packs
After discovering the importance of hands-free shopping with the sling bag, I’m now convinced everyone needs one! These sling bags are roomy, lovely to the touch and will set you apart from everyone else. I print different designs on each AND they come with a custom coin pouch too!!
