"Crush" 4-11-2014 daily painting #16 I watched Chasing Mavericks last night. Got to thinking about the ocean again. The way the water changes with the seasons and the weather. How you knew how the ocean was feeling by looking at it. By listening to it. When its feeling peaceful, playful, and angry. What we have done spilling oil into the gulf again and again goes beyond mere clean up. Beneath the waves the story is changing. Because people consider themselves separate from the tides we do not react as we should. The ocean is our life blood and if we fail it we fail ourselves.
