Relax Fish (adopted)
Below are the fish who have been adopted.
A strange thing, I know, ‘adopt’ a painted fish. Many, many, many people have looked at me with a bit of confusion in their eyes upon seeing this concept. And, give it a name? Why would I do that? So strange…
So many times I’ve had people walk up to my table and ask, ‘where are the fish?’, when a whole table sits before them. The idea between a living fish and created one, not such a big leap in my mind but for many, more so. Most leave still scratching their heads…
Yet, here I am, painting fish and putting them up for adoption, and enough people understand what I’m up or figure it out to help keep it all going.
Little reminders, that’s all they are. Friendly fish that catch your eye.
A reminder to relax. A reminder to breathe. A reminder of the bigger picture. Bookmarks for a better mood.
The name, to make it yours, the message becomes personal, the vibes, new fuel for a depleted system.
