I was a very bad puppy mommy this weekend. I let Annie play with another dog and chase some birds sooner than she should have. She blew out some of her stitches, which is not a good thing. Trying to keep a dog who is use to running and walking 3-4 hours a day in a calm state for 2 weeks is impossible. Squeaker has become Annie's go to play toy after she's done chewing on all the furniture. Squeaker doesn't seem to mind the extra attention she is getting from Annie but I do worry about a 60 pound puppy playing with 2 pound kitten. When she needs a break she climbs up on to my work table or computer desk.
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
