Work in Progress

When I was a teen, purple and orange were favourite colours. They appear in this book as an hommage to my cousin Margie who has a knack for reminding me what is truly important - not the colours, but the joy and fond memories they represent. Thanks Maudie!

Let the folding begin.....

In the Garden

This book, In the Garden, was featured in the first edition of PAGES, an Interweave publication.

The original book is by Khalil Gibran. The Chiyogam i(black and white) and Tibetan (green) papers were chosen for theit peaceful colours to reflect the text within..

Jackie

This book was partially inspired by the original title about an Old Man and a mystery. The music of Scottish singer/songwriter, Jackie Leven, helped through the entire process of  folding and colour selection. We are born in a wave of darkness and experience many waves and levels of activity throughout life to return, in a final wave, to darkness then on to whatever may or may not follow.
