Moonrise

Moonrise

This unique sculpture depicts an aging pine anchored to a rocky island as an enlarging moon appears to rise from the watery depths.  The stone consists of granite, quartz and iron pyrite, which gives the island a mystical quality all of its own.  When the correct light strikes the moon, subtle lunar shapes and colours can be seen in the glass.  Imagine what the pine has witnessed over its lifetime as it is silhouetted by yet another moonrise.

    Awaiting Spring

    Canoe Song

    Listen to the quiet tone of paddles stroking cool, clear, depths, as the swirl of gentle breezes soothe the haunting call of the loon. Ripples on rocky shores glisten, keeping time as they rise and fall in ancient rhythms. Choose to join nature’s symphony, with a genuine respect for all of its instruments, and rejoice in the subtle melodies of the canoe song.

    Canoe Series #14

    This collector piece is one out of a growing edition that I started creating in 2016. You will notice that the edition number and the artist’s signature is engraved on the back of the canoe, so as more pieces are created in the Canoe Series in the future, the lower edition numbers will translate to an increase in value with the passage of time.
