When I Was A Kid

"One With Copper" week 11

This is what we saw when we stepped onto the beach Saturday. It was the most perfect warm fall day to go to the beach. Last summer when we (family) were at Tracadie there was a beautiful section of beach with crushed shell. I was hoping to find the same sort of texture for my copper installation for this week.

We had the most enjoyable time trapping all over the beach looking for a crushed shell area. We didn’t find any, of course with the tides and time everything changes at the beach. I did find a nice area with large shells to set this weeks installation up/on.This where I end up setting the instaltion up for Week 11

When I was a kid I spent many hours playing on the beach making villages with roads for dinky toy cars to drive through. My copper installation does not do justice to the memories of the grand beach villages of my childhood.




Thank You for Stopping by this week
