Fifth Anniversary

I started Fish or Cut Bait five years ago last Thursday. Sometimes I feel fairly tapped out. Other times I want to grab myself by the scruff of the neck and with a forceful shake, growl "Bad Blogger. . . BAD. . . shame on you"

Ha Ha! But I can revel in my laziness these days as idleness is surely the ultimate rebellion.

A quick glance at five random posts from over the years reveals some gems that I had forgotten about:

Beatrice Caracciolo, Water Mark 11, 2006
mixed media on paper mounted on canvas, 38 x 61 1/2"

Rembrandt van Rijn, Young Woman Sleeping, a drawing

Shirley Kaneda, Affirmative Discord, 2007

Rezi van Lankveld, Listen, 2007
Oil on board, 16.54 x 13.78 inches

The similarities between the five random posts are interesting. Water being the key... Wonder what the Freudian significance would be?

Thanks Carla. I owe you bunches.

Nice nail head Sarah. We should yammer it out in real time.

Congrats FOCB. I remember way back when, googling Kristi Engle Gallery, and one of your blog posts mentioning your 1st solo there showed up. So great to have met your acquaintance. Thanks for all your inspiring posts and general good spirits. And dude, congrats on the Santa Fe gallery. That is super. Duper.
