Canadian Holiday.


While in a walk in Stanley Park, Vancouver I found this piece of driftwood on a beach where there was evidence of First Nation fishing activity.  Small boulders had been placed to form channels that became pools at low tide and so trap the fish, also visible were signs of a path to drag canoes onto the high tide area.

So here is a piece of driftwood, from an ancient place, combined with a modern material, glass, to made a container.

2016

Well, January is nearly at an end, the tax returns are done and new designs are on the way!
These Op Art designs have been on my mind since I was a student, back in the day, as my boys would say.

What I find so interesting is the shadows made on the surface that the bowl sits in.  The bowls are nestling on brushed aluminium tubes.
