As the waves washed upon the shore, raised lines of sand and debris formed a relief along the boundary between the water and the land.  Occasionally a larger wave washed up, erasing previous lines.  I thought about the marks the sea made, about the ebb and flow of the tides, about time and centuries of waves leaving marks and reshaping the land. I thought, too, of the marks artists make and the ones they leave behind. My recent work is a visual investigation that draws perceptual parallels between an artist’s mark, nature and the sea.
