“Big Boy Fish Head” GMGI acquisition; Paul Cary Goldberg (L) Jon Sarkin (R)

Gloucester Marine Genomics Institute (GMGI) acquired original art by Paul Cary Goldberg and Jon Sarkin for its special new research institute headquarters on Main Street — which means they built an impressive ~~temporary~~ corporate collection from the get-go! *update 1/10/19: GMGI stresses that “these pieces are on loan, and remain property of the artists and are for sale.” Ok! So they could be a great start to a permanent collection. For a peek inside, including in-situ shots, see Kim Smith’s post about the GMGI expansion groundbreaking

Menage Gallery Striper

I took these two carved wooden stripers home from the Menage Gallery to see if they would work in the house.  The Mrs loves them and actually found about 4 or five different spots that she wanted to place them.  I say that’s a little overkill so we may settle on just getting two.  One for the kitchen and one for the deck.  Pictured is “Goody” who was working yesterday when I picked these two up.  Video at 2PM

Fish Art At Elliott’s

Snoop Maddie Mad really liked the carved fish art in Elliott’s at The Blackburn.  So much so that as soon as her feet hit the floor she would take off to the little side room where they were displayed.
