ARTIST'S COMMENT:

 

"Over thousands of years, moving water or ice has been the agent of change for much of the topography we see

on our planet today.

 

Liquid or frozen water has sculpted many unusual and spectacular shapes into our landscape.

 

These natural forms can be impressively massive or exquisitely detailed.

 

Regardless of scale, I find them remarkable and awe-inspiring, so it is not surprising that rocky coastlines, eroded bedrock, boulders and stones have appeared in my artwork for many years."

 

~Karen Richardson
