2020
Hope everyone is well and healthy. Despite the lack of traveling this year, I have been creating wire wrapped sculpture pieces with antique/vintage skeleton keys, clock parts and crystals. It’s a bit of a departure from my normal art but a creative outlet is required in this isolated times. Check out my craft pieces on my etsy page here.
After a rough 2019 fighting camera issues, 2020 seemed to start well with plenty of travel plans. However, with the global pandemic, travel isn’t looking good this year, and so I have been focusing my creativity on other endeavors. The first building my own fantasy style board game, and the second, a poster size map depicting the many “magical” places of the world, as depicted in the fictional “Necronomicon”.
Until we can all resume our travels safely, stay safe and healthy and I’ll see you on the other side of this crazy mess.
