This Was Always the Goal: Erase Palestine. The horror unfolding now is not a deviation from Israeli policy- it is the culmination of it. The blueprint was always there, a long-term project rooted not in defense, but in territorial conquest.
The goal has never been coexistence. It's erasure.

Springtime, and a vase that I made.

… just a little light to brighten your morning.

I made sprig molds of my jewellery, and created a bunch of sweet little ceramic magnets.
Neat to see my carvings represented so differently.
🤓

Thank you, Amanda.
They were quite the project!

This was an interesting project that came my way, early in the Fall of 2020. He wanted them in time, to be worn, for the 2020 US Presidential election.

This became an important project for me.
Even in Canada, I felt the weight of it then, and even more so now.

Wishing best to American neighbours

Mace of the Republic
Is a ceremonial mace and one of the oldest symbols of the United States government. It symbolizes the governmental authority of the United States, and more specifically, the legislative authority of the House of Representatives.

(Pride lost)

Do I ever!
🤣

Yes. Thank you!

Mike Myers was a few days late, so I made these ; )
… I was waiting for the meme! Haha, but I’m happy with these. Both a call to action, and a show of solidarity.
❤️🍁

I ❤️ mine!
🥰 … you’ve got a wicked hook! ; )

Thank you, Dear Darrin.

Here they are!

I did.
So good!
(I wonder if the irony was lost on the felon, though? , )

Whatever works!
… I’m embarrassed to admit that for me it’s Les Miserable - the entire thing…. I sing, and get lost in work. Madness! Haha. 🤓

Too curious… what song was it?

I’m here!

I do!!! I love the drum sounds they make with their feathers! They are cool creatures.
Enjoy your visitors!

😆 too funny.

I had so much apple!! Fed my neighbours applesauce for several months, while I was making this piece.

Also - even better - they are just apples and vit c, dehydrated - after installing the piece. We ate the leftover sweaters.
That was the best part of the work, for me.
🤓

A cross section of a dried apple, cut to represent a sweater. There is a dried leaf coming from the stem.

Apple Sweater. This is one of my favourites. I made 900 of these, for a sculpture competition (where I represented Canada at the IV Jeux de la Francophonie, in 2001). This piece, and so many things about it, break my heart (in the best way), every time.⁠

Yes, most of my projects are wrapped in sentiment. It’s so lovely. 🥰

Big Dipper key chain, 5 pieces for 5 sisters.
When they come together two stars are formed.
I made this as a gift for my Mom to give to her 4 sisters many years back.

Love and stardust.
Always.

Thank you, it was such an honour.
I am very lucky, to have such open-hearted clients, who ask me to create pieces full of meaning and love. ☺️
