Fish Dance a la Klee



Sad to report but I am quite behind on my art challenges.

I had a fabulous weekend at two different art markets and spent an afternoon taking photographs at the zoo, but it left me very little time to catch up on my art work.

I created this piece with the intention of including it in Take a Word's Circle challenge but simply ran out of time.

After tinkering and changing proportions and colors, I finally got a balance that I really liked!

99 posts and counting! - Gone Fishing Surreally



Looking at my blog posts a few days ago, I realized that this blog 
has been running about a year and we are up to almost 100 posts!

Cue the marching band!

Fairyscape Fish


This piece isn't in response to a specific challenge but it's an idea that has been 
bobbing around in my head for a while.

Say hello to our friend the Surreal Seahorse!

Something Fishy this way Comes - TAW challenge


Please be very quiet...

We have been following the elusive leaping trout for three days 
through the thickest part of the mushroom jungle.

Finally, we have sidled up close enough to capture 
this image of it as it leaps after it's natural prey.

Astounding.  Mother Nature at her finest.

Shoo Fish don't bother me



If fish were meant to fly, 
the composition of air would be
very different indeed.

It might be easier for them to chat.
At least, if they had human style faces
like our green friends in
toadstool land.

I bet they could even tell us
which way Alice went!

Also, have you believed three impossible things yet today?  
Your breakfast is getting cold!

Fly Fish Fly


I was so pleased with my surreal flying fish landscape
that I was inspired to make a couple more.

Here is one.  

For some reason, it makes me think of strange alien lifeforms
descending eerily from the sky.
