Practicing a number of different Traditional Hand-Crafts has expanded my Spirit, informed the way I approach every line and
                           every stroke and when time allows I still wedge a batch of clay and couch a sheet of paper.  In my years I've re-bound historical
                           books and ledgers, hand laid my own papers, hand dyed and marbled coloured endpapers, and sculpted paper mache' boards,
                           along with a series of ornamental ceramic frames and tiles.
