New work on letters that I’ve been exploring through the incredible art of goldwork embroidery.
Below this photo is a link to a mini gallery featured on my new website dedicated to the current work I’ve been exploring within the arenas of both medieval and contemporary embroidery.
Mastering the backstitch as mode of expression in text….
“perspective”
Letters letters letters….. Time to get back to work in the studio….
This work is a study done with an automatic pen #1, gouache, on BFK paper.
I’m thinking of turning this work into a print, and also working it into an embossed version with my etching press.

I came across this photo taken on December 31, 2015. We had spent that day at the Forks enjoying the company of tourists and locals, and taking in the ambience of the artisan shops and buskers performing at various points in this historic area. The day was unseasonably warm, and I got the opportunity to have a photo taken beside the statue of Mahatma Ghandi outside the Canadian Museum of Human Rights. It was a poignant way to end the year and begin a new one.
❄️Wishing all my friends and family the best in 2019.❄️
❄️🍾❤️Happy New Year! Bonne heureuse année!❤️🥂❄️
Happy Holidays to All!

We finally had some snow falling here yesterday… So very exciting to see the snow fall and settle on the branches in the forest!
I love the effect too of bare branches in the colder seasons — like spontaneous bursts of calligraphy writing itself at infinite angles in the atmosphere…constant state of communication!
