Embroidery on an epic scale!

This is something I've never seen before and it was a nice surprise. I saw this as I was getting ready to walk out of the Discovery shop in Pacific Grove. This isn't a thrift store I visit very often as things are way over priced. At first I thought it was a photo or painting but it's really embroidered! I'm pretty sure it's machine done because the stitches are very even and tight. If someone did do this my hand, they are scary good with a needle. The price is $175.00 each, a little too high for my budget. :(

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.
