Pebble, Piece, Piece, Feather
This arrangement is, perhaps, one of my favorite finds. The photograph does not capture what this simple, linear arrangement of tiny objects does for my spirit. The pale orange of the pebble draws out the oranges in the sand. The … Continue reading
An Assembly of Ovoids

The edge of the tide. A white pebble. Only many days later did I notice the single grain of sand on the pebble.
