Elephant families remember the tiniest of water sources, even in drought.  Their combined weight creates paths that deepen, and puddles can become ponds or even lakes over time.  The ecosystem is totally altered by this repeated activity and is a profound example of the interconnectedness of nature.

A ceramic artist for decades, I have been working with encaustic medium on fired clay since 2010.
