Continuing Education.

And the man with a Dream toils til dusk. Dreams do come true my friends, if we only wish hard enough!
Don't wait for someone else to make your life Terrific...well because....That's your job!
I've had to work hard for everything I've ever really wanted my whole life. Nothing has come easy. But in the end it is all worth it for I have touched the hearts of others.

A Bump in the Road...

A bad day for the Whale.....

While making a little art studio behind the whale the building was red tagged. Then the county representative tagged the whale too. Five hours later after pictures, drawings and a short interview and the building permit department I was back in business! The Westport Whale is still Alive and Well!

Sidewalk framed and formed

"And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt"
-Sylvia Plath-
Anyone who has ever attempted to create a huge project knows from time to time you may experience the fear of not being able to finish a project. That fear is there sometimes for me but I have never lost sight of the goal.
The entire sculpture has been poured over Rose Quartz. This stone has emotionally healing powers and all visitors will recieve this gift as they walk to the sculpture!
