I have been enameling since last November and am continually intrigued with the depth and intensity of colour I am able to produce. It is an addictive process! I love etching the copper with layers of glass on top and seeing the pattern come though from underneath. I feel I have found a new medium to incorporate into my sculptures which completely resonates with with every aspect of my being. I have started making enamelled panels to incorporate into my woven copper sculptures. Come out and see what ive been working at the Denman Studio tour this August 16th and 17th, 2014!

![]() Very excited to announce that we will be having an artist run studio tour on Denman this summer scheduled for August 16th & 17th, from 10:00 - 4:00 each day. Mark your calendars and stay posted for news regarding this event and the artists participating in this event. I will be producing a new series of small sculptures incorporating woven copper, woven photographs, enamelled copper, and mixed media; art jewellery; and woven copper mirrors. Hope to see you on the studio tour weekend! The Christmas craft faire is coming up December 7th and 8th on Denman Island. I'm excited to order a kiln to begin enamelling on copper this year for sculptures and art jewellery. These enamelled sculptures can be inside or outside. As they are weather resistant. I'll be posting pictures of new work soon so check in from time to time to see what's new! Look for my booth at the craft faire this year in the Denman Community Hall. Hope to see you at the wonderful event!
I'm finally getting back to producing again after a very busy work year which completely consumed me. I'm excited to be in the Denman Studio tour this year. I'm producing art jewellery, woven copper mirrors, and a few new sculptures are in the works and will hopefully be done in time for the show. I look forward to having people come through again and hope to have a great turn out this year. It's happening August 10th & 11th. See my link "about" for details on time and location. I'm excited to have my work recently selected to participate in "The Story of the Creative" international group show being held at see.me New York City Gallery. Hope everyone has a fantastic summer!
The Christmas Faire has come and gone and with the holidays coming to an end i'm back to work. Many thanks to everyone who supported me at the Faire this year, I really appreciate it! We had a great turn out even though the weather was terrible. I've just uploaded new images of the art jewellery i've been working on. Have a look! Happy New Year to you all!
Many thanks to everyone who came out to our show opening! We had a fantastic turn out and both Leslie and I really appreciated you coming out to see our new work. For anyone who hasn't seen the show yet, the Denman Arts Centre is open daily from 11-4:00 and the show runs until September 4th. Stop by if you can!
