The components here were photographed in Half Moon Bay last year. Reflections in the harbor combine with an "A" I found stenciled on a school wall. I added Kanji characters here and there as well as some other elements. What I like are the blue and orange complementary colors and the strong diagonal lines, not only in the "A" but in the overall pattern. There are a lot of hard straight lines, offset a little bit by some curvature in the Kanji writing (even though it's quite muted). I could do this ALL DAY! ©Carol Leigh
