I detect a fondness for fish.

Well, I admire the skill, but I find the resultant objects oddly dull.

These are beautiful. The video was incredible. Although I'm impressed with the huge schools of fish (technically impressive), I especially like the little bowls with just one fish (so elegant).

I was just sitting with my jaw open when he painted with the broom. Lovely!

Wow, I really want to see one of these in person so I can study it more closely. This is elegant and sublime work. Thanks for posting this.
