Hey Steemit Friends, I've been asked by so many people to do some sort of video workshop or something friendly and accessible that aims at how I do some of the magical things I do in my studio. Or even

This is another one of those projects that emerged after a long season of illness. Way too many years of fibromyalgia and being stuck, in pain, not being able to move much. Meanwhile, I wanted to sculpt

Ok I'm back after a bit of a school craziness to continue this series with a piece carved in alabaster, mostly. The top layer is cast glass that is clear with inclusions of colour that match the stone.

Sometimes that which seems solid and strong has a crack down the middle, and the thing that looks most fragile can hold it all together. Right now, that's kinda how I feel, so this is what you get to see.

This time we have here an alabaster piece with some glass lace inclusions. Overall, a form that is sheltering, yet something within is reaching for light. I enjoyed playing with the translucent behaviour

Next up from those kaleidoscopes is a set of projects that are abstract in nature, carved in some sort of stone, and usually involving very fluid movement of line and form. And lots of play with light.

Alright kids, this is the last one in this series. And it happens to be my favourite. Sure I've done loads of other kaleidoscopes, but I'm not bringing them out to play. (Probably can't find decent photos

Well the fun continues. One of the many weird things I've done over the years as a sculptor is design and produce awards. This week's kaleidoscope happens to be an award that I created on behalf of the

Well this time our feature scope has taken a departure from my typical abstract style towards a rather recognizable apple core. As you can see from the background, the size of this apple is around 6"

This week's kaleidoscope goes way back to the beginning of my scope making days. If you have followed this series you may still spot some stylistic consistency regardless of the variety of materials. In

This week's kaleidoscope has a bit of a redemptive story line in it's creation. But first, a tour of the components. This piece has a base of white alabaster, supporting a brass scope barrel. The carved

This week's kaleidoscope features a red and grey glazed earthenware sculpture that carries a stainless steel barrel as the body of the scope. The clay layers are each freestanding and gradually change

Ok, this is going to hurt a lot. I have some specific goals I ideally need to reach, and in order to get there some changes are in order. So here's the deal: On average I work out 4 days per week, primarily

This week's kaleidoscope features some wispy copper tubing that emerge from a marble base, supporting the main barrel that houses the mirror system. It is stainless steel, and etched with a smoke-like

Bet you haven't seen one of these before! For something different I thought I'd bring on a series of sculptural kaleidoscopes I've made over the years. This one here is made from a carved marble base with

150,000 people coursing through our gallery, and the others, on James St. N. between yesterday and today. It's a zoo of curious tourists hitting the hottest art market in the country for this weekend.

Sometimes a girl has just got to get away from the studio or the desk and get out there. Here's a glimpse of a few moments this past weekend spent hanging on some rock. It's amazing how something so demanding

In the gallery that I run we are currently having a group show that involves masks of all kinds. This piece is one of several that I created and have included there, and I thought I might bring it out

Your friend's aunt is a Sunday afternoon painter. So when you have some sort of occasion warranting a potential gift, you get a sampling of her work. What do you do? Do you like it? Do you feel like you

This glass pendant light was cast in my kiln a couple years ago. I've done variations with different colours, but this is my current favourite. It is featured here as a response to the artexplosion challenge
