Blue afternoons is an uplifting fishscape with 5 carefully sculpted trout moving upwards. Blanketed it in Becca's signature matte blue. While creating this piece, Becca was reminded of days at the lake, surrounded by blue waters and blue skies and free from life's daily stresses. 
 
Becca's fishscapes are inspired by many hours spent as a child watching fish under the dock, or through the ice. She used to do this for so long that she would see swimming fish when she closed her eyes to sleep. These works honour those memories, and remind you to let your imagination run wild. The negative space backgrounds are metaphors for the inner conscience and imagination.  All fishscapes take on a new life depending on the lighting. In low-light conditions, shadows of each fish appear and make the work very dynamic. 
 
Becca's fishscapes have been described as being meditative, calming, energizing and grounding. She affectionately calls them her "living fossils" - preserving memories and nostalgia in stone, but still very much alive.
