#ARichLife Bounty. This soundtrack for the movie The Bounty (1984) by Vangelis is very eerie. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Loved Colum McCann's latest. You will, too.

I colored this picture of a sea turtle and wrote this story about it.

An interesting premise in a novel by one of my favorite authors about the cables in the oceans that transmit information over the Internet. Though we speak of “the cloud“ much of the transfer occurs underwater. Topics include the digital age, connection, COVID.

I colored this picture on Zen Color. I‘ve seen sea turtles hatch on nature shows and they really do this. They hatch on the beach and go out to sea quickly so they‘re not eaten by predators and I root for them.

Sea turtles have hatched out of their shells on the beach
They‘re going out to sea now
They need to go out to sea quickly before they get eaten by predators
🌊Go sea turtles! Go! 🌊

Missing child, broken father. An outsider magician and insider woman. Generations of trauma. The hunger of water. Never turn your back on the ocean. I highly recommend Lindqvest and this book.

Had such a great time reading this!
I'm thinking a good 30 percent of that was production value, the choices made in the book's design, to go heavy on the visual impact, including many images of Lego found, of examples of plastic pollution in the ocean, (sometimes as the result of cargo spills, but not always), but photographing and composing the pages so they are art, and even often have an I Spy book quality. 1/?

Oh good, there's a word that. 😖
