My latest piece, No Regrets, is on display at the Cre8ery in Winnipeg as a part of the annual ‘For the Love of Craft‘ exhibit of the Manitoba Craft Council (open until 18 February). This hand-built ceramic sculptural piece (270mm x 490mm) is finished with fired glaze and stains, and includes assemblage elements — wooden Scrabble tiles, bicycle spokes, and a turned wooden base.

Jack… Master of None is my latest figurative sculptural piece, showing at the Pulse Gallery (the Forks) Winnipeg as of tomorrow. Jack is quintessentially Canadian — a “type eh” personality who takes himself somewhat lightly. Hand-built fired clay figure/assemblage with turned wooden elements, shoe stretchers, and knife-blade propeller; oxide stains and cold finishes. 250mm diameter x 500mm height

Please come for a visit (10:00 to 18:00 on Saturday and Sunday)!

Others dream alone. This piece speaks to the greater power of collective visioning and the realization of communal imagination. Individual dreams come in many sizes—common dreams move well beyond measurement.
