A few month's ago a Circle Journal buddy had a cropping fundraiser for the Heart Association. There were raffle baskets and we won a basket full of Starbucks coffee beans. The coffee were for some friends (we don't drink coffee) and they returned the basket thinking I would make better use of it. Purrcy of course can't pass up a box, bag or basket especially if it has tissue paper in it. Purrcy is listed as a lavender Siamese Persian at the vet's office. The lavender bows on the basket will be the closes I will ever come to getting Purrcy to wear a bow. He is very much a metro cat, loves being groomed and having a bath but he draws the line at bows or kitty clothes.
Flat Fish Paper Arts was born many years ago when blogging first started. My family did a lot of camping and diving along the California coast. California halibut are huge fish that start out as any normal fish. As they age, one eye will start to move to the other side and the halibut will become flat so it can lay on the bottom of the ocean with both eyes facing up.
I always like the idea that we all start out the same but life experiences slowly changes us. In my case, my creative talents went the way of paper arts. Flatfish are always looking up when they mature and as with any artist, we see inspiration in everything around us - always looking up.

Years ago a local dive shop had a photo of a diver who caught a halibut so big he had to throw it over his jeep to take the picture. Our little spoof with our daughter sitting in her toy jeep with dad's halibut on the hood. 1987
