Favourites

Here, you will see some of my favourite images from other talented artists. I encourage all to take a look at these artist's other works as the ones I chose are just a few. Some inspire my work, others give me ideas for colour use or medium use for future works. I hope you enjoy.

Groups

I will be putting together a wonderful display of impossibly balanced stones (wind/weather permitting) in Downtown Vancouver on the shoreline  between English Bay and Second Beach from 1pm until 9pm.  Unfortunately, there will not be a candle display in the evening.  Keep in touch to find out when the next candle display and rock balancing display will be happening.    Hope to see you there.  Have a great day !

As you sit and gaze at the stones standing as if at attention, you are to identify (at your leisure) with one of them. One represents who you are and what you are, but only you can know which one of them is "you". When you associate with that stone, you must realize that one day, one moment, that stone will fall. And so you will too, so take in the moment and know that this life is temporary...all must fall so enjoy right now.
