By the Water's Edge

By the Water's Edge

"By the Water's Edge" is a seven-colour lithograph drawn, processed and printed from Bavarian limestone by the artist and was the 1998 Gift Print for the Honolulu Printmakers Organization. The Honolulu Printmakers have been commissioning a Gift Print to share with its members in the islands since 1933. The image for this work was originally sketched at The Valley of the Temples in Kaneohe, on the island of Oahu in the fall of 1997. This print also appears as an element in the print "Waiting for Moments of Gladness." Since I was a small child I've always been fascinated by fish, especially koi, in their dark green shallow ponds, a splash of colour in an otherwise murky world. There is an elegance to their form, movements and shallow surroundings. I find myself continually being inspired by the spiritual quality of this other world, one which is reflected in the quietness of these shallow pools of water.
