Fibre and Mixed Media Artist living in the Kootenays, BC. The seed is a tiny yet powerful symbol of the life force, our own creativity and the power of small. There is a growing awareness globally and locally about the importance of preserving seed diversity and I have noticed several artists around the world engaging in a dialogue about seeds.

We visited Kyoto 7 years ago. It was actually our first trip to Japan trip. This time the trip was more tailored to specific things I wanted to do and see. We stayed in this beautiful hotel Misui Garden. The room was almost big enough for the two of us! But in saying that, the hotel was beautiful and the Japanese style breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The market was so big and busy that I feel I need to go back for another visit to see the rest of it.
