Swimming against the tide

Hosted by "Tracy" at "Mother May I," but the photo-picture below will whizz you right there with one click.

Just call me snap happy.

I've been very busy in the bowl / pot making department.






So I took a morning out to teach my daughter how to throw a pot on a wheel.
Pretty impressive stuff for a first timer!





This may look like my old design, but it's a variation on a theme.



Can you spot the difference?





And yes, it is of great significance to me.

Some see a fish that looks like just all the others, indistinguishable from his fellows.

Some may see a rogue fish going the wrong way.


Others may feel an ironic association with eye contact, or maybe something else.

For me, it's more that there is a different perspective, often more than one, but most of us are far too busy running with the crowd to notice alternatives and appreciate them for what they are, differences. Not better. Not worse. Different.

Hoping these little guys will be fired over the next two or three weeks when I hope to make them available on Etsy. Let me know if you need one, two or three outstanding freelance fish in your bowl?
