Made out of recycled laundry detergent containers, balloons, recycled paper, feathers, glass eyes, metal glasses, silk tie, recycled cardboard paper plates, Mod Podge, and paper bowls.
This owl, among others, is being handmade for the ‘Where Film meets Art’ fundraiser for the Windsor Center for Film, Digital Media, and the Arts on April 27th. It took many, many hours of work to make this owl. I created it with the Harry Potter theme and had to find all the recycled items in order to create Hedwig

Pollinators, Spring, Life , acrylic on canvas, 20 “ x 10“
Pollinating animals play a crucial role in sustaining our ecosystems and generating our natural resources by facilitating plant reproduction. Through their movement from one plant to another, these animals carry pollen on their bodies, facilitating the essential transfer of genetic material vital to the reproductive process of most flowering plants. However, pollinators are in need of assistance. If everyone, including homeowners, local and national governments, and private industries, collectively implements conservation techniques, we have the power to positively impact the future of pollinators and safeguard our own well-being.

Forest Pearls, photography
The rain showers in the forest have turned into glistening, translucid and delicate pearls, adorning every green surface with delicate droplets of water. This transformation has impacted the entire ecosystem, creating a lush green panorama that envelops the surroundings in a natural beauty.

Fishing Gnome, Balsa wood
Carved from a block of balsa wood with chisels, this wooden gnome was designed by me. It took 6 months to carve. Before I could start carving the wood, I had to make a clay sculpture in order to measure where on the block of wood to start chiseling. This is why I do not sell my wood carvings. It is a skill in itself, with so many hours of time that no one could afford it. The real reason is also that I put my heart and soul into my work, which is priceless.

Much Needed Rain, photography
Today, the most needed rain fell in our city, creating intricate patterns of water droplets and ice forming amazing textures on the transparent clear glass of my balcony. Rain is essential for the ecosystem to sustain life in parks, trees and flowers.
