Whimsy Fish
INTRODUCING MY NEW SERIES
For 25 years I have been working with some of
Nature’s perfect creatures, fish and crabs. I obtain them from
the waters that surround my home on Martha’s Vineyard.
Using the method of Skin Mount Taxidermy
I’ve attempted to recreate their natural beauty.
Now, I have decided to go in the opposite
direction and let my creative gift go WILD!
