  In 2007 I lived for a few months in Half Moon Bay, California. On daily bike rides and walks I recorded in drawings and photographs the shifting fog, changing ocean colors, unexpected sightings of birds, animals and manmade objects. This process evolved into working in the waters of the Pacific, and later the Atlantic Ocean off North Carolina, letting the waves themselves create patterns and textures and document a specific moment and location.
