Australian felt art “Shoal”. “An ever shifting sandy shoal that sits between two conflicting currents.   This tidal shoal exists near our house which is close to Bass Strait, that dangerous body of water that separates mainland Australian states from Tasmania.  “Shoal” is much like life at times. We are conflicted in major decisions at various junctures of our lives and when this happens, procrastination can very easily sneak in and paralyse rational thought and decision making. so that we are stuck in the one place, unable to move on.
