Hubby brought home some daffodils from me this week. The daffodils have really short stems so as I as walking around my house looking for a small vase, I remembered that I had saved this old tea pot (with no lid) from one of my auction lots. I always thought it would make a great vase and without it's lid, no one would buy it in my booth. It was too pretty to throw out. It was just the right size for the flowers. Decided to take a picture of them with the natural light coming in from the patio door this morning. Didn't need to use my flash or any over head lights.
Absolutely beautiful! I bought myself some tulips and daffodils last week, and they really brightened up the kitchen (when the furbabies weren't trying to eat them!)
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
