I really don't think Sweetpea is so much serious as indifferent. But on a cat both expressions are interchangeable (just MY experience with the felines.)

And if the thread goes off topic, Ceiling Cat will strike down the offending posters...

I like your new avatar, VR. Makes a lot of sense (BIG Fish eats small fish)

Why is it all the white cats are so serious??

Thank you, Curly. I'm glad you like it. I just wish I could credit the creator. Here's the full-sized version I downloaded yesterday:

So who thinks like that anyway? Was that image in someone's nightmare before they made it reality?

I don't care, it's great art!! I love it. And, I'm really glad you posted the large one, because I only noticed the fish in the avatar.

Someone sent me a wild piece of body art sometime back. It was an elephant in the forest. You can probably guess what made up the elephant's trunk.

I saw the faces, but hadn't realized that the fish were painted ON the faces. I thought it was a surreal painting on canvas or whatever.

That's pretty cool. (If a little disturbing.)

Someday there may be a way to submit an image to a search engine and get a provenance on it, so we can credit the creators. I hope so.

It is on 'Dave' at 9pm on Good Friday (10th April) in the UK. They are back on Earth and on Coronation Street of all places! I have marked a big red H in the diary!

I've done searches on the filename and also on things like "fish art" and find that it (and three similar photos) can be found on dozens of websites but none that seem to be the original source or contain any useful information about the creator. That's unfortunate.
