Artwork Description:

Road to Corvallis Ash and silt, borne on ancient airs, ancient waters—you draw them into your eyes, stria and strata, silent fires of color, composed before man, in the midlands of time. You linger, give the earth your hours, as she gives you yours— hours that hover now on the slender border of winter and spring—green, an immanence yet beneath winter’s white grass, wildflowers suspended between bud and bloom. All quickens. The harrier’s love cry, held there in that instant between release and arrival, on plateau-winds, in the sky…. You draw that moment’s sky into your lungs, sunlight shimmering on the dark drift of the creek. A view, steeped in mind, become vision…these hills, the opened soul of the Mother, voluptuous, rounded, tempered with the ages, lovelier than her foliage, an aurora of soil. You contract before her, near to nothing, and then you expand.
