The Pop-realism artwork by Mike Pitzer depicts a single vibrant orange goldfish suspended within a clear plastic bag filled halfway with water. These were prizes you could win at the Algonac Pickeral Tournament at the “Dime Toss”. The bag is tightly sealed at the top with a knot, causing the plastic to fold and crinkle, capturing the transparent and reflective qualities of the material. The goldfish is centered inside the bag, swimming with its fins slightly spread, highlighting its bright color against the clear water and plastic. The composition uses a stark white background that emphasizes the delicate and realistic details of the bag and fish, creating a striking contrast.
