Something's Fishy
0.0 x 0.0
On my way to Bodega Bay on the Pacific Coast, I stopped at a local nursery and noticed a number of chickens wandering through the plants. I snapped a photo of one of the chickens with a black plant container in the background. Later, in my studio, I added a polaroid negative and collage elements to tell a story. One of the elements is an antique etching of a fish coming in from the left of the painting. As a final touch, I added a small glass fish to the chicken and I love the element of surprise as people view the collage and find the elements which account for its name.
