Item Description
When the party's over | This bass was created using found materials that were washed ashore on our island beaches. Mylar party balloons were cut up and transformed into fishscales, old window screens were layered with plastic and paper to create dimension for the bass' fins. Acrylic paint and resin give color and new life to otherwise discarded materials that make up this bass who reminds us to keep our oceans clean!
