Artist's Statement:
Oil on Belgian Linen
24 x 30 in
Time is more complex near the sea than in any other place,
for in addition to the circling of the sun and the turning of the seasons,
the waves beat out the passage of time on the rocks and the tides rise
and fall as a great clepsydra [water clock].
John Steinbeck
Tortilla Flat
A fragrant breeze wandered up from the quiet sea,
trailed along the beach, and drifted back to the sea again,
wondering where to go next.
On a mad impulse it went up to the beach again.
It drifted back to sea.
