Alitak Studies

1/30/2021

0 Comments

 
I’d never been to the south end of Kodiak Island until July 2020. After a delay due to fog, we hopscotched from Trident Basin in Kodiak over to Larsen Bay, and then toward Cape Alitak where we landed off the beach at Tanner Head. Lots of knowledge in the plane with Rolan, Pete H, Sara, & Sheila narrating the flight path, history of the area, and setnetter lore for the rest of us. Working with (and possibly against!) the tides, we had some time on the beach and then hiked over a few more bluffs than we were planning on to get picked up.  The wildflowers, company, and G & T after coming down off the bluff made it all worth it.

These flower studies are elements for a larger project funded through a Rasmuson grant.  I start with pencil sketches before moving on to pen and watercolor. Sara and I will incorporate her writing and my art to create a series of literary broadsides over the coming months.
