Where I found the tools

In Chronological Order

The Nature and deep ecology of the Ozark Mountains.

The hills, valleys , rivers and caves were my playground . The trees and flowers , mushrooms and the turtles all were my teachers. They showed me that my gifts were naturally derived and intrinsically important to shaping the ecology of the future world

Hand carving stone and wood, with a hammer and the chisel has been my primary artistic out let for the last 8 years .

I have spent thousands of hours shaping stone and wood into beings of archetypal beauty. Taking away what is unnecessary to reveal the beauty with in.

Art as I know it is a form of meditation, some carvings take a day and last a life time , Some carvings take a year and are given away the day they are finished, there is no substitute for an artistic practice what ever it may be to help you find your inner magick and soul purpose.

I completed the Basic Compassionate Deposession training with Betsy Burgstrom through offering “Spirit Wise”.

A powerful healing workshop that focuses on tools and techniques to help those suffering from illness caused by possessing spirits and that problems they create.

We looked at some of the causes or reasons for possession and the mechanics of how it happens. Practicing age old, and new age modalities for helping both the individual and the spirit find peace.

All of these experiences have led me to what I am offering now with

This has been an Alchemical Process of dismemberment and re-connection, through a myriad of modalities and stages of evolution. I have come to find that my true purpose in this world is to hold space for evolution. My own and possibly yours.
