The Leslie Street Spit in Toronto is one of my favourite places – it was originally the dumping ground for the construction refuse during a period of rapid growth in the 60’s. The land created was colonized over time by over 400 species of plant life and is now a protected area that serves as…

This week I wanted to feature a new medium I’m playing with that everyone seems to love – using glass tiles to carry artwork. These tiles can be used to make pendants, fridge magnets, keychains, zipper pulls…. I’ll bet there are tons more that I just haven’t thought of. These Serenity Prayer pieces were made…

This past weekend Tito and I drove out to the beautiful town of Merrickville, ON – a town dedicated to crafters of all kinds. They have several pottery and glass blowing studios, a brilliant artist who carves gourds and a metal smithy. On the way we had an unexpected treat – we passed a llama…
