David Francis, Wood Carver

I met David at an Artists' Studio Tour this weekend. He has only been carving for about 2 years but creates some wonderful whimsical pieces from cottonwood bark. David says that if you tuck his fairy houses in a special place, they will immediately become the centre of activity for all fairies in your home. When one or more of the "Little People" move in, you might not see them, but they will show their appreciation by bringing you good luck and fortune will watch over you.

Meet Wendo Van Essen

I met Wendo Van Essen during an Artists' Studio Tour in our area today. She is a fibre artist using wool and needle-felting as her medium. Wendo is also starting to add stitchery to her needle felting work and she had a wonderful example that you can see in the photo below. You can see more of Wendo's work on her website, fibreartbywendo.com Just click on her name to enter the site.
