on the beach
agate beach
newport, oregon
25 jan 2020
.
1) drawing - quickly done because…
2) the waves were coming
3) looks deceptive, a nice bit of beach
(zoom in and you’ll note surfers out at the breakers)
4) a few quick pieces up, looking for more
5) and then… 6) maybe five feet dry behind me
7) hey, look, a rock to build on
.
very high tides just now on the coast, 9.2 ft high tide slated for two hours AFTER these pictures were taken - no beach at all to stand on by then, logs are being pushed up against the cliff face.
