CURRENT MISSION

To educate and inspire people to create local food systems, ecological designs for living and working, and to encourage conscious, kind, communication and healing on all levels for people, animals and the earth. To do my art and farmstead consulting well.

ABOUT ME

I am in my mid 50's and have had a challenging, wonderful life in spite of huge obstacles.
My art is about nature, landscapes, eco-systems, animals, herbs, flowers, health and healing. I have been a sucessfull illustrator for several Herb Companies and Newsletters.
Have sold paintings and many prints and cards in various venues, festivals, Earth Day, etc.
I have studied Feldinkrais, yoga, BodyMindCentering, organic farming, permaculture, etc.

PHILOSOPHY

Waking up to the enviromental/food crisis and that we are all connected and of the same divine essence. There is hope when we have the courage to fully look into ourselves and the issues at hand and work and love together. Come let's create a new world order based on plenty for all within sustainable new ways of living. i'm also quite cynical at times. oh well.
