It started as a comment from my niece, which made me laugh,
"shall we put the fish in the sink while we change their water?"
which took root in my brain and became a sketch,
and after a few hours cutting linoleum,
(please note; no goldfish were harmed in the production of this print!)

Ha ha! Are kids not the best...they think of this stuff...but um, the fish in the sink, my boys and I did that once when they had this little fish tank, and yeah, well, we lost a fish down the sink. Ugh, to this day I still can't forget it.
