Clearwater

A pen-and-ink drawing of weathered rocks by the seashore. The surfaces of the rocks are encrusted with weathered clamshells and the sand is speckled with tiny black shells.

Reference photo of the same seashore, showing a stretch of beach with gritty sand made totally from shell parts, strewn with seaweed and scattered with dark rocks.

The same shore seen looking inward to a sandy slope topped with tropical scrub, and a row of tall palm trees in the distance.

Further inland, a twisted tree looming over a tropical path, with odd-shaped twining branches arching over towards the camera.

Another view of the path, framed with trees and ferns and creeping vines.

A close-up of some shells, the largest as big as the palm of a hand. There are three heavy grey-white clam shells, three smaller scallops an inch and a half across, and two twisted clumps of rock and clamshells cemented together.

Hahaha yowch. Nasty. I never saw anything like greenants at the beach but there were some pretty big spiders.

Yeah it was an adventure!

Spiders eh? Sounds really kewl. I love spiders. But not walking through a nest of them unless I know they aren't poisonous thanks!

I know of two people been bitten by a spider and gotten really ill. One never really recovered his health poor dude. The other one was Eddy. He had to go to hospital. So he was always really scared of them ever since.

Dunno if the big one I saw was poisonous or not. It just kinda waltzed across the path in front of me, like, "you're the stranger here, not me!" Figured I better stay back just in case.
