A woman with tentative footing stands in a tetrahedral crevice cut into the face of an enormous stone wall. With no good handhold, she extends to glance out at a track of rust stains in the textured concrete. Well out of arm's reach, the vertical lines run parallel, marked with empty pairs of holes and the occasion—often broken—rung made of bent rebar. A similar pattern, evidence of a ladder that used to run up the wall, extends down from where she stands, but from her vantage she doesn't see it. She wears a white shawl-like shift trimmed in blue that hangs to knee length on the front and down to her heels in the back. Cut in a triangular pattern, it is an obvious inversion of the nook she inhabits.

Figure detail from PENDULUM featuring a man precariously balanced on metal jutting from the side of a stone wall as he looks down. Light illuminates him along his left side as he reaches out and up to steady himself on a shorter length of rebar protruding from the wall. A chain wraps his other arm extended. The length of chain falls taut with the weight of a lantern hanging low like a pendulum.

A man stands on an outcrop of rebar in the space between two massive stone walls. In one hand he struggles with a lamp hanging on a long heavy chain while his other grips a rusted piece of metal anchored to the stone facade. Up high and barely visible is a thin line of hazy daylight that he can't see because he's looking down.

Pencil/graphite tonal drawing of a landscape. Tucked behind ferns next to the trunk of a tree, a horned creature glares outward with a scowl at being disturbed. Unaware of the little beastie, the flowered boots of a young girl stand near by, for she is intent on hunting for tasty mushrooms. The two may become acquainted very soon, as there some lovely edible shrooms at her heel. NOTE: They both like mushrooms for dinner.

A smooth stone piling stands tall at the edge of the water on a white sand beach. Set near the top, a circle wrought in rusted iron provides a view through to where the water meets the shore. The circle is bisected by a diagonal, like a "no" symbol. Water pools at the base of the piling. The withdrawn tide has left a wavy line of white pebbles deposited along the sinuous coastline.

A harsh look down abandoned main street as a dust storm is about to swallow the town, pushing forward from billowing brown clouds on the horizon. In the foreground a stop light hangs papered over with a giant wasp nest. Ominously the red light of the signal protrudes from the nest like an unblinking eye fixated on the viewer. The yellow lane line dividing the street wavers off-center. To the left, a car is overturned. Among the wreckage lies a child's rag doll spilled out the passenger window. An eagle with wings spread wide is painted on the derelict shop window.
