Mount

A grassland the size of a small county, between two coastal ranges that almost meet. Most years the plain stays gold and tan, the way California looks in postcards. Then a wet winter comes through and something else happens. The hills along the Temblor Range come up in bands of yellow goldfields, purple phacelia, and white tidy tips, for about three weeks in March. The bloom is not annual. It is the year the rain decides. Soda Lake stays white with salt while the hills do their work.

Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
