Ari Derfel, THE MAN that made this project possible came to Bellingham!  He is such an inspiring, true, visionary, witty and enthusiastic spirit.  We had a great time working together, drinking wine, eating well, pondering the mysteries of the universe, and tossing stones on the beach.  My good friend Caroline drove up from Seattle for an amazing work session.  Josh filmed Ari and I philosophizing.  Thanks to all three of you for a good and fruitful couple of days.

Pretty ground glass in Ari's hand.

Checking out the progress.

The mural coming together (very slowly).

The paper / powdered glass figures are closer to completion.
