    I’m speechless! I know these images are a tiny representation of your Ireland trip but they are so very unique and moving. Never have I seen a ‘line’ so transcendent.

      Like Dennis said!!…..and wow, your written journey is just as intriguing a journey as the visuals!!

      1. I have read a lot recently about your fight for environmental responsibility; I think of you often. Thanks for visiting. You are special. Chris

    2. Thanks for being the special friend that you are. I can’t wait until we share another week of creative thought on Gabriola. Chris

  2. Most intriguing Chris. Loved the textured curtains. Great mountain image! Enjoyed reading your explanations thoroughly. Thanks for sharing so precisely some of your thinking while you create. Fascinating stuff! Tim

    1. Thank you Tim for your interest.
      Get your chainsaw ready for the next firewood adventure!! Chris

  3. Chris: It looks like your creativity is alive and well! I am looking forward to the workshop in a couple weeks. Joan

    1. I so look forward to seeing you on Gabriola Joan. I will always remember how you processed polaroid prints over a camp fire on a Bowron Lake canoe tour many many years ago. You were and are a creative genius! Chris

  4. My house, where I have lived for 30 plus years, looks out onto something similar. The view is never the same as the ocean currents change hourly. A couple of nights ago, there was a silver line coming out from Texada Island and extending half way to Harwood Island, then it petered out. I’ve seen it before, but slightly different. It’s always magical. Heather

    1. Enjoy every day Heather. Chris

  12. From the guy in the boat. Early morning and evening paddles alongside Doug Fir elders near Hope last weekend. Still amongst shoreside ice here. Cheers.

    1. If the guy in the boat was near Hope, how come he didn’t drop in to visit when passing through the Cariboo?? Great to hear from you Jim. Hoping all is well in Yukon. Chris

      1. Went by in the big sky boat!
