Father's Day Fish

Whether it be 

lazy days at the old fishing hole

or sitting in the theater watching The Perfect Storm,

we all have memories of fishing.

Fishing is deeply ingrained in the American vernacular.

We speak of the one that got away,

other fish in the sea,

hook, line, and sinker,

it was THIS big.

As Father's Day nears, 

An everlasting fish would make the perfect gift for

Dad, Grandpa, Uncle, Brother, or

any other fisherman in your life.

And don't forget, 

it's fine to treat yourself occasionally

All these pieces are available for curbside pickup or local delivery.

2018 The Year in Review

2018
was an eventful year at Studio 419.

First came the name change,

from Dan's Recycled Art to Studio 419.

The year started with the Affiliates Artist show at 

Riverview Renaissance Center for the Arts.

==========================================================

In April I was the featured artist at

An Octopus's Garden. 

This has become an annual event for Earth Day.

======================================================

June was a busy month.

I completed Community Spirit

for Homan Park in Swedesboro

                

                         

======================================================

Also in June

I held my first Open House and Sale 

at Studio 419

=========================================================

In September I began exhibiting
in an exciting new gallery in Swarthmore, PA

=====================================================

The year ended with Christmas sales 

at various galleries.

================================================

Of course, none of this would be possible without
my lovely wife and agent extraordinaire,
Patrice

Undersea Creatures at Studio 419

ghoti

 In the September 1987 issue of
The New Yorker magazine, John
 McPhee wrote an essay titled

ghoti
$190

"Release".In this essay he gave an
account of a blind man who used,
what at the time was cutting edge
technology, a program that took
printed words form a computer
screen recited them in audible
form.
 The machine was able to read most
words properly, but had trouble with
some of the peculiarities of the English
language.
 As an example, John asked him to type
in the word 'ghoti', a manufactured word
often attributed to George Bernard Shaw,
that demonstrates some of these peculiarities.
The machine pronounced the word "fish", using
the 'gh' sound of 'laugh', the 'o' sound of 'women',
and the 'ti' sound of 'nation'.

This is the title of my latest piece. "GHOTI".
It is the rough approximation of the shape of a
fish, yet it is not anything like a normal 'ghoti'.
