Recently I have
had the opportunity to relax with some of my hobbies a bit more.
I thoroughly enjoy working with my hands and working with things
of and from nature.
Woodworking
is one of my favorites, but unfortunately I don't have a lot of
time to spend on it. Here are some pieces I've done in the past
couple of weeks (mid January 2001):

This was a spur
of the moment piece done on a spare piece of wood. Just a simple
medicine wheel with feathers, accompanied by a Kokapeli on either
side.

This
was something that came to me when I first got back into woodworking.
I held off a while before starting it and used a shelf that I had
on hand.
I
chose the wolf totem because it is very dear to me, and decided
to inlay it with a dream catcher with turquoise. Brother Wolf helps
with strength, character, family and loyalty. The dream catcher
snags the bad dreams in the web and filters the good through the
feather in the center.

This
is another shot of the totem dream catcher set alongside a canoe
I am working on. I found this small piece of wood in the forest
and it said, "Pick me up." So I did. I tried to carve
a couple of things from it, but the wood wouldn't let me. It told
me it wished to be a canoe... so here it is.
[More to
Come]
