I spy...

Paul asked me to make him a brush holder and here he is sitting on Paul's palette working hard, holding brushes.

"Vivian" in Progress



I have been commissioned to make a piece about a woman and her love of quilting by her husband. After many sketches and a few false starts, I am finally getting some where. Creating, whether a quilt or sculpture, is mostly a quiet and contemplative process but when completed, there's a feeling of elation and pride.
