fish scale roses

I saw this lady at a art show she had little roses in pots but when you got closer they were made out of fish scales, she was around a fish market and figured out a use for  the piles of scales. Who says you cant make a fish  smell like a rose well maybe look like one.
We talked and she said it takes days to make one did not have time to say too much but was selling them right and left as we talked, good thing we can multi-task.
so we look around us and see what there is we can make into art oh and as artists we can do something with anything, Take rocks you can polish them string them and sell them if its pretty they will sell. I have lots of gemstones to prove that.
I have also seen (paintings) lack of a better work made from dyed wood chips from the husbands saw he woodworks and she makes beautiful birds with wood chips for feathers, So who would have thought of using wood shavings that way and artist would.
artists dont see the world as others may we look at something and say of that is neat what could i do with this?  so now  the question is what will you do will you look for something  that  can be reused and make something special ?    www.almajofineart.com
