Mount

The Smith drains the Siskiyou Mountains and runs about 25 miles to the Pacific through redwood country in Del Norte County. The water is famously clear because the serpentine and peridotite of the surrounding mountains release almost no sediment to the river; even after a winter storm the green pools stay readable to the bottom. It is the only major river in California with no dam on its main stem. In late autumn the steelhead push up from the ocean into the lower runs, and the rain begins again, and for a few months the country smells like wet redwood and stone.

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