Both Mr. Purrcy and Squeaker bring home little presents for me.They found out early in life that Mom really doesn't like presents that move,chirp or drip blood. Mr.Purrcy has been known to bring me flowers and now Squeak brings me leaves. This morning she walked in very proudly and drop this leaf by my office door. I'm sure she wanted to jump up on my desk to present it but Annie was on guard duty and nothing was going to get by her without a complete German Shepherd inspection. I'm also guessing some fur babies want tuna for breakfast.
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
