So, I dried him on a paper towel for a few days and coated him with Polycrylic -- which preserved him amazingly well. He is mounted in a little frame that I painted and wrote below him, "Poor, Poor Fishie." He sits on my desk to this day!
The fish below were never living so they would be happy to be mounted on a string and turned into a necklace or some such thing. I think I see more polymer fish in my future...

ReplyDeleteI love your fish!
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous. They reminded me of Luann Udell's work, but with more color.

thanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteAngie, I didn't know the name Udell but I looked her up and realized I had seen her horses before. I like them -- like cave paintings in 3D.
