# About me

I grew up in Sequim, WA. Moved to Eugene, OR to study Architecture at UO. Found Sacred Geometry and woodcarving towards the end of my schooling. Not doing as great in school as my professors would have prefered, and becoming less and less interested in a future in Architecture, I dropped out and moved to Earths Rising Farm (between Eugene and Corvallis.) 60 acres in a beautiful wooded setting where my Uncle and cousins have been since I was young was the perfect environment to further my art and personal studies. I study geometry most all of the time, build numerous models to study particular geometries and carve, carve, carve. I have found woodcarving to be an incredibly rewarding art, and with Sacred Geometry as a muse, the wonder always grows.
I've always been intrigued by DreamCatchers, so I finally taught myself how to make them. Studying a 3D DreamCatcher for a while, I finally figured out how it went and taught myself how to make them. Having an understanding of how the 3D one went, I explored different geometric frames and have found dozens more spherical DreamWeaver patterns. They are also very rewarding and very fun to make.
I've been interested in crystals and rockhounding for quite a while and recently acquired some lapidary equipment. I've been very excited about cutting polyhedra out of stones, and almost all of the stones I've worked have been ones that I've collected myself. I am very passionate about creating all of this geometric art, and very much wish to be able to make my living doing it. I appreciate the support of all those around me who find the same joy in my art that I do.

Thanks for the welcome. Me having a watcher inspired me to publish some more of my work. Everything geometric is what inspires my art. It started with woodcarving, weaved its way into spherical DreamWeavers (3D DreamCatchers) and has most recently crystalized into stone carved polyhedra. . .
