Creek Wrinkles (2,026)
$$100.00
This collage is inspired by a recent experience I had sitting on a rock at Spring Creek. I saw how the rain that starts at the top of the bank runs down in rivulets, forming new trenches through the hard pan, each drop joining one another winding their way to the creek, but that day every crevasse laid dry until our next rain.
I was filled with grief, remembering my nephew. I wondered if perhaps I am not carrying those that I’ve lost like little drops waiting to fall, but perhaps they are all carrying me gently like the wrinkles of color on the surface of the creek.

What is Spring Creek to you?
My favorite experience of Spring Creek is when I tried to smuggle tacos down to it at midnight but when we saw the glow of coyote eyes in the woods we decided to eat elsewhere!
