My mixed media is developed from sustainable natural resources. Water is added to this organic medium and blended to a thick
consistency. Spread out onto quality stretched canvas. I sculpt, carve and cut the medium, creating abstract, cultural and
zoomorphic forms. Formulated from different types of ash, stone, and byproduct plant fibers powders that are safe and non-toxic.
It takes two to five hours to sculpt the medium depending on the size of canvas. Each piece dries flat and hardens like dense
tree bark, but looking like carved stone. Lightly sanding each piece and masking the objects I do not wish to paint, I primer
(base paint) the work with different colors. The final process is painting layer upon layer with acrylic or bio paint to achieve
a harmonious blend of colors. My medium is termed "Earth Stone" because it comes from Mother Earth and looks like
carved stone bas-relief. Spirit House Art works with the spirit of plants, animals and humans. It is profoundly transformative
like metaphorical alchemy or the philosophers stone. Spirit House speaks beyond words from mineral and plant spirits.

My earth inspired artwork can have the likeness of stone hieroglyphic's,
masonry, stela's, petroglyph's or symbols from ancient cultures. Inspired by visiting archeological sites and observing
the composition of stones & rocks in natural environments. My work contains the essence of the elements Fire, Water,
Air, Earth, Wood & Metal. Molding and carving the organic medium spontaneously, zoomorphic and anthropomorphic
designs sometimes appear in my work. I honor the planet and all her relations in a symbolic form of art that heals
my spirit. An arch of energy is experienced working with earth elements.
