FIRE - Creative destruction, fire warms, gives light, destroys, changes, creates, without it we could not live, the Sun in his daily glory is Fire incarnate, rising each morning to light our day and reflecting his brilliance upon the Moon at night. Fire thoroughout the ages has been revered and used in sacred ceremony.  Fire, is the spark of Divine Light. 

WOOD - The Tree of Life, fruit of the earth, her roots dig deep into the earth while her branches reach to the heavens, she gives us oxygen to breathe, shade to cool, fruit to eat, branches to climb, wood to build and paper to write, she fuels the fire and together with Fire gives of herself to provide us warmth and light. Time is etched within her grain recording the circle of life.  Wood, is the Sacred Circle of Life.

I am honored to work with both Fire and Wood and through them hope to communicate the wonder, power and beauty of nature that surrounds us all.  May viewing my artwork bless your everyday and open your eyes to the bountiful richness that surrounds us!
