~ Life Aquatic ~

The Center For Art In Wood of Philadelphia, PA hosted a dual exhibition:
Hooked On Wood - The allure of the Fish Decoy, and - Life Aquatic.

I carved four fish in response to the invitation to create pieces for the Life Aquatic exhibition.  I enjoyed discovering what fish decoys are, and chose to use that interest to carve fishes, rather than following another inspiration source.
