Legend Tree21-1/4" x 20" Limited Edition Print of 60 Retail $100 CDN The Legend Tree is a symbol of that which is unseen by most, but to the trained eye, may be deciphered.

Genesis20-3/4" x 19-1/2" Limited Edition Print of 100 Retail $100 CDN The wizard walks alone, for alone he is, as God of this earth. The picture shows the tree of knowledge in its early days before it was defined in its creation. The tree is seen as though in a dream, where the vision is neither perfect nor clear and cannot be focused upon by dreaming eyes. In the beginning there was light, and since then, history. | |
Ambrosia"Food of the Gods"20" x 24-1/8" Limited Edition Print of 100 Retail $100 CDN Ambrosia is thought, for only thought can excel the human race to a height unreached before. Without it, we would only be another earthly animal, struggling for survival. It allows us to envision the impossible and alter it to become the possible. In ancient times the gods brought thought to the people and the people used it well. For now look upon us, the world is full of the impossibilities of past man.
