Artist's Kayak
The Drawing Beneath My Kayak - Second Edition
The Drawing Beneath My Kayak is about exploring the river's edge - getting in close along the bank, beneath the rich spill of brush and overhanging branches. The kayak affords us a way to glide silently through a most delicate and sensitive habitat. Unseen and undisturbed, we follow the flow of the tumbling stream as it transitions and shifts to a lower key... the wavering reeds, the smooth-worn stillness of rocks, the dragonfly and the water strider. Here the aquatic community blends in with feathers and fur ...the river bank is home to many animals. Through reflections and ripples, above and below the surface, there is a mysterious drama and unusual beauty to the finger-sloughs, receding pools, and other features that makeup river's shallow water habitat. It's worth a closer look. Among the fifty plus pages of aquascape sketches and designs, the artist/author incorporates soul-searching journal entries that aim to connect the dots between curiosity, creative process, appreciating nature, and gaining traction in developing a sense of personal well-being. |
