I am sad to share that Marks
Spirit left his body on October 28, 2021. Difficult to report,
even though it has been over 3 ½ years. Mark was 92 years
of age, but he still enjoyed carving nearly every dayjust
for fewer hours and a bit more slowly.
Mark and I shared 43 adventurous
years, traveling the U.S. and Canada. We lived and traveled
in our RV full-time for over 30 years before settling down in
Chiloquin, Oregon, on 5 ¾ acres along the Pacific Flyway
in the high desert area east of the Cascade Mountain range.
Recently, I have been re-photographing
pieces that we had completed together and were exhibiting prior
to Marks 2019 stroke. That event made us realize that
we could no longer continue the lengthy travel required for the
few Exhibitions we still attended, and in which we enjoyed participating.
Mark had a remarkable recovery, to say the least, but his stroke
created new issues that precluded sitting for long flights or
road trips .
Currently, I continue to work
on completing pieces for commissions [from very patient clients].
These pieces were carved by Mark and await my painting.
That said, we have inventory
that is still available. I will be adding this work to the Available Pieces on this
website.
As is true of the commissioned
works, all pieces being shown have been worked on by both Mark
and me, as our work has always been.
