    [As a US naturalized citizen, ‘Travels with Charley’ is one of my favourite travel/Americana books (just behind Least Heat Moon’s ‘Blue Highways’), storytelling supreme, especially with Steinbeck’s personal situation at the time; this building on that exploration and observation - including ‘Log from the Sea of Cortez’ - is truly a joy to see]

  2. Hermit crabs for #MacroMonday Almost a year since I first went for a shore-walk! counting down days to next low tide (and hoping for a non-rainy evening) #Photography #Nature #TidePool #Invertebrate 🦀 🌿🖌️

  3. An undergraduate student here at #LincolnUniversityNZ, Shuizetinglan, was interested in exploring tide pools so we suggested he visit Inainatu/Pile Bay in Lyttelton Harbour. It has an extensive rocky platform that's exposed at low tide where various intertidal creatures can be found.

    Shuizetinglan visited there on the weekend and found several interesting things, like the 5th observation on #iNaturalist from Banks Peninsula of a dwarf brittle seastar, the 1st observation on iNaturalist from Banks Peninsula of a Jewel Anemone, and this, the 1st observation on iNaturalist from Banks Peninsula of a sea spider.

    When it comes to local intertidal biodiversity, there's a lot still to document.

  4. Our Dulse Sky Seastack Earrings are made from tiny stack of glimmering aquamarine and deep wine red garnet stones hanging from recycled sterling silver ear wires. The aquamarine is rustic and micro-faceted with a titanium coating, making the stones glimmer like a tide pool.

  7. Purple Shore Crab (Hemigrapsus nudus), and a bit of Shakespeare.

    These little guys are everywhere on the shores of the Salish Sea, scurrying under rocks or raising their tiny claws at you, offering a fight.

    I used five different reference photos (and video stills), to cobble together a leg and claw arrangement I liked. Its facial expression turned out a little more pouty than grumpy, but that's okay; I think it still works.

    Soon to be for sale in the shop at the Seattle Art Museum. For information on purchasing shells, see my website: kitozbooks.com/product/painted

  8. I can't decide if this painted shell turned out interesting, or a dismal disappointment. It's supposed to be a tide pool with anemones, urchins, starfish, and barnacles, but... I was too excited by the subject matter of "tide pool" (I love tide pools), and didn't give enough thought to design.

    Next time, I'll focus on just one creature and perhaps some bladderwrack.

    I find that when a painting has gone wrong, it almost always went wrong in the initial design phase. I'm always sorry when I "wing it" instead of thoroughly working through questions on an initial sketch. I sometimes wish I could be more free-flowing in my approach, but, well, that's just not who I am.

  9. A recent focus of my art has been on pattern design. I design with the end goal of my work being used in clothing or decor that I would personally like to wear or decorate with.

    You can get these patterns on fabric, wallpaper and homegoods through my spoonflower shop:
