shoreline textures




WHitch one do You pReFer?



I've allways loved the crunch of a thick grained sandy beach or pebbly shelled shoreline. So many days i spent south of the border looking closely at my own self through the wonderous beauty of textured shorelines. even the multitude of plastic bottles somehow held a certain beauty, yet annoyed with the everpresent abundance of plastic i just could'nt quite fathom how many people just dont give a shit about throwing overboard whatever, and whenever they felt like it..

the textures of trash




I love The teXTures of TrASh... thereS So much rhythm anD visual sensUousneSS involved in The creative ProCess. and ONE OF the uniQue thingS thAt inspIres me is that The TRAsh is somehow reScued or foUnD and Then its as if it gets givEn an opportunIty to be "reBORN". AND it's THAT the part ThaT makes me SmilE inwardly, and from that spArk of Inspiration the teXtures begin to move, mUch lIKe leaF's IN THE WIND. and oncE aGain this becomes such an INtegraL part, that is so InspiRAtionaL to ME... and thAt is thIs "not KNowing," THe tasK of listening to and allowing all these NEW found textures to lend themselves somehow in the maKInG of objects, to utiLIzE all of thEse VArieD TExTures of The Trash...hA ha HA
