NEW PIECES
Abstract Bark Spirits
What began as a challenge to transform this delicate, single piece of bark into a mobius-like spirit, has turned into a daily practice of meditation and creation. These are a reverence to nature, a monument of eternal love and a symbol of safety to those whose path they protect.
This is a limited series of 60.
Carvings are approximately 10×10×15cms and carved from foraged Cottonwood bark and discarded geology samples. Various finishes are applied.

Traditional bark spirits
I always wanted to make these. I found some bark on the ground at work and was gifted some tools.
I created these in the same traditions as all peoples who came before me, with great respect for nature, and as a request for protection and safe passage.
All traditional spirits are made from foraged Cottonwood bark. Finished with linseed or tung oil.
$10 - $75
Paintings
I started painting again after finding raw canvas, stretched canvases and other rigid structures like old drawers and shipping crates at my job. All destined for the trash. I took it as a sign.
I paint because I love expression through colour and form. I paint because I find things my brain wants to turn into other things. And because I take lots of pictures and have lots of ideas that need places to go... while listening to hours of Radiohead. No good reason. Lots of small ones. Just have too. Balance I guess. Thanks for helping me figure this out.
$50 - $2400

Beer label assemblages
Please enjoy my Beer label assemblages or BLA's. I truly hope you enjoy their simple whimsy as much as I enjoyed assembling them. (And drinking the beer). These actually helped me smile again after a very dark period of my life. I didnt have a lot, but these helped me see what was important and that I had everything I needed.
Works are framed in 8×10's matted to 5×7 unless noted otherwise.
