The permanent memory that I have of this painting is the protective dike for the Kaweah River at Three Rivers, California. After my inspiring trek, hopping the river boulders near the shallow winter flow, I climbed up the steep levee; then I pondered how best to get down and still remain clean. I decided a slow run would be best. A few steps down made me know that “slow” was impossible; my feet could not keep up and I found myself in a heap at the bottom in a red nettle patch. Head, hands, back and legs full of stickers that wanted to remain a part of me. “Low Flow” recalls that adventure near a very beautiful rocky foothill stream.
