"Solo"
 
8" x 16" - Gypsum on wooden panel 
 
Sometimes the simplest options are the most impactful. Solo features a single, life-sized trout meticulously carved and featured prominently on a stone-like surface. The matte stone grey finish adds timelessness to this piece. This colour was inspired by her larger sister piece, "Fossils". Framing available upon request. 
 
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.
