I took Annie down to the park for her evening run last night in her Halloween costume. It didn't seem to brother her at all. She would even wear the hat as long as it didn't get in the way of chasing her tennis balls.
Most people just thought she was wearing a strange rain coat.
I found it interesting that people who are afraid of big dogs had no problem when they saw Annie in her costume. I guess mean dogs don't dress up.
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
