My solo summer vacation continued as I spent two wonderful weeks in East Chezzetcook, Nova Scotia, where Margot, a friend and former student at Pendle Hill, generously offered me the use of her home while she was away. It was my first time in Nova Scotia, and I loved being there by myself - exploring the small towns of the eastern shore (northeast of Halifax), walking the local beaches every day, napping when I needed to, cooking whatever I felt like eating, and working long hours on my sculpture. Mostly I worked on the knot sculpture, refining the forms further and creating a surface texture that suggested strands of twisted fiber within the rope. These photos also show the view from the back of Margot's house, looking out over Chezzetcook Inlet which connects to the open ocean about 5 kilometers to the left.
