#TBT ThrowBack Thursday  (This ArtWork and Words was created in July 2004.  The words written on the piece of ArtWork were ‘free formed’ (in the fact that as I thought the words, they were were written immediately on the artwork). Below are the words written on...

Needless to say, it has been awhile.  I find that despite having plans, life can easily change one’s itinerary on this earth plane.

I started skating when I was two years old. In the back lot, between the rows of houses, there was a dug out piece of earth that would be filled with water every October. The Winnipeg Winter would arrive and the frozen water would become my rink.

Side note: My mom passed away a month ago.  This is the first work I have created since her passing. When I sat down to create, I wasn’t intending to generate a piece about the ‘mother child relationship.’ And with every work I voice, I listen to my intuition,...
