Perks of the job at the Akiyama Wellness Center

One of the many perks of working at the Akiyama Wellness Center is having the seniors bring in flowers from their gardens. I'm a big fan of fresh flowers and made sure one of the first things to have on hand were flowers vases. I saved some (OK a lot of empty sake bottles)from Sake San Jose. My pics from my cell phone don't really show the deep rich colors of the roses or how great they smell.

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.
