GJ recently finished a new clock-like piece. I love the way it rings a bell every 6.4 minutes. The video can be seen here.

We were so pleased to read an amazing review of GJ’s work by Robert Amos in this morning’s Time Colonist. Heading into our second full week of the show at Dales Gallery. We shot lots of video yesterday and hope to have a few new films on GJ’s YouTube channel next week.

I love to watch GJ work. How he translates what he imagines into an exquisite object or painting is astounding and never fails to delight me. Here’s a pic of a work in progress.
