Clay Play at the Beach


Gemini, Sleeping--A Mask:
sculpture mix;
denim, transparent brown, and clear glazing,
layered.

Not A Pretty Sport II

Weeds and surface scum from taking photos neck deep (or deeper) into the tide-flow.  The sweater worked like a filter, and I was square in the current, so I caught quite a bit.  At one point I was distinctly festooned--not a word I use lightly--with sea grass and kelp.

My James Bond persona: 008.  

(I made and carried a business card in the fourth grade that identified me as British Secret Service Agent 008; I little thought how a business card did not quite fit the secret agent persona, and yet how "secret" was Bond, James Bond, about his identity?  My foolishness was cultural and of the day, I'd say.)

Three Views: Tomales Bay

As the tide fell, the harbor seals hauled out on the sand bank there.

Boat and boat.

Looking west from Lawson's Landing, Tomales Bay.
