Fish Bug

Well hello there fishbug fanatics.
We are terribly sorry that we have forgotten to post anything of relevance here for quite a while. For the most part we have been busy since the playa taking our fishbug on the road and trying to find other festivals and locations for people to enjoy the wondrous creature that [...]

What we do for ART!
Love,
The Fishbug Crew

Can you believe it?  We are now hours away from packing the Fishbug and taking off for her dusty debut.  As I write, I hear grinders, welders, and tinkering; the sound of finishing touches.  We are all pushing ourselves, many late nights, last minute work arounds, and general dashing to a fro to get ‘er [...]

We will post more tonight, but enjoy this from our first fire test Saturday, while all of you fools played in the Sand we [...]

Rainbows over the Shipyard today, an auspicious sign indeed, as FishBug gets ready for a debut at Fire Arts Festival.

This 4th of July the Fishbugs spent an all American day working on Art.  That sounds like a good tradition to me, making Art to celebrate the founding of our nation but I might be sort of biased when it comes to that.  Maybe I’ll send a proposal to President Obama about that for next [...]
