Description

Titled "Flounder Flat Stack," 8 striped flounders in alternating colors of brown and orange with bulging blue eyes are stacked like pancakes in a quirky column allowing their stripes to match up vertically are displayed on a white background with various grammatical symbols describing their thoughts and actions. From the bottom up: The bottom grounded brown flounder is sleeping soundly oblivious to all of the weight above pressing down on their back from above and dreams of little sheephead fish jumping over some puffy clouds. Orange flounder #2 is whistling a merry melody perhaps it is a lullaby no it’s John Prine’s wonderful little ditty “Fish and Whistle.” Brown flounder #3 is talking and grumbling about the predicament they are all in. “Whose bright idea was it to sleep in a stacked upright pancake pack?” “We aren’t sardines!” Orange flounder #4 is all the while clueless about those above and below. This is not what they expected, but notices how well all of their stripes match each other stacked so high and tidy and don’t we all look nice together and then thoughts linger and wanders and they think what is going to happen later…are we all going out? Brown flounder #5 is gasping heavily for breath from the weight above and thinking this is a heavy load. Orange flounder #6 is bored and tired and wants to get some rest and hopes the others will fall asleep soon. Brown flounder #7 is fast asleep with no worries. The last orange flounder on top is disgusted that the flounder below is asleep and won’t talk about what is going on here and then wonders what are all of the people looking at? Perhaps you will have a different story. I hope I have brought some whimsy into your lives with my art! The art is currently available on greeting cards, beach towels and tote bags.
