Another beautiful day here in Carmel! I have to decide if I'm going to stay another night or go home. Of course while I was here I went picking. Prices are super high here so I don't expect to find anything. Using my UV light I did find a few things that glowed. I went to the Restore (Habitat for Humanity) hoping that with my UV light I would spot something good. They normally price things at full retail so my only chance was with the clear glass. All these pieces glow and the one that surprised me the most was the jar. It was only prices at a $1 and I'm sure it's because they thought it was just a reproduction. It lite up like a Christmas tree when I flashlight hit it. The pitcher has a little chip on the spout and I debated if I should get. It does have a bright glow which tipped the scale in my getting it. It's usually enough that I should be able to flip it.

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
Some times you just have to do something different and see the world from a another angle.

What's with the blog name?
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.
