Inspiration for a Garden of Fish

I recently set up a large aquarium in my home. I remember the most enticing aspect of the whole endeavor  was creating the environment within the tank that my fish would inhabit.  While sipping on some coffee with fish on the brain, I was looking out  over my patio and envisioned fish swimming and schooling amongst the landscape. From this came the thought to create  sculptural fish and compose them in a manner that  juxtapose the inherent essence of a strictly aquatic creature with a terrestrial landscape. Whereby providing these simplified and distilled clues of a simple stream-line fish form, giving them only the slightest graceful curve of the body, and organizing them in a composition that suggests the activities of movement and schooling, the eye and mind fill in the spaces inbetween with life, activity, and story;  though they swim not in water, but on air.    

Material & Finishes:
The fish are fabricated from three different materials:  steel, stainless steel, or bronze, and are currently available in two sizes 12" and 16"  long.  The stakes come in a variety of lengths between 18" and 34" . The length of stake has no effect on cost.  

STEEL- fish are left  raw and uncoated and in a short time acquire a beautiful rusted finish.  YES! I am fond of rust. 

STAINLESS STEEL-  fish come with a variety of patterns ground into their surfaces along with a subtle range of color applied by heat and/or  chemical patina for a textural effect.  They are then clear coated to help protect against the elements.  

BRONZE-  fish offer the richest colors and largest range of  finish possibilities.  I use many of the same methods as the stainless fish, such as grinding in patterns, heat application, and chemical patinas. Because of the nature of bronze the patinas offer a great range of possibilities and rich warm colors.  They too are then clear coated to help protect them from the elements.
