Original artwork description:
It may be a little difficult to see but in the upper portion of the Mackerel you might notice the letters “IXOYE”. This is an acronym comprised of the first letter of five Greek words which break down to Jesus, Christ, Son of, God, Savior. The word is also the Greek word for “fish”. Jesus- "Called the fisherman to be fishers of men." When researching this paining he was looking for a way to incorporate something holy into the fish and when he came across this acronym it fit perfectly.
