Pedernal Spadefoots
The majestic Pedernal peak of Northern New Mexico, standing at almost ten thousand feet, serves as a breathtaking backdrop to the artist’s studio. The mountain upon which Georgia O'Keeffe’s ashes were scattered now marks a tranquil backdrop for a shimmering pond in the moonlight. Summer toads come up to breed in the temporary pond created by dramatic summer monsoons. Though unseen, their melodious orgiastic chorus fills the air, adding a magical quality to the night. Put on your headlamp and walk with us down to the pond, under the moon, and take care not to step on one of the thousands of Spadefoot toads hopping about.
