Each rock dove I make is a little prayer for peace.
Observing the rising level of fear and hatred abroad in the world, my only
possible response is to use the skills and materials and ideas I have been
given to increase the inventory of positive messages, in a desperate
attempt at achieving balance.

DOVE
#12
Marble
10x10x6
$1500.
|
Hope for fear.
Giving for taking.
Love for hate.
Peace for war.
No one can change the course of events, or change
the minds of others. |
|
|
| Each person can, and must, do what
little things they are able to nudge the balance toward what they
believe to be right.
In the face of our current national tragedy, the invasion of Iraq,
I choose to make sculptural representations of doves. |

I have been releasing doves of
different sizes from different rocks, for many years. Part of what
I believe is my general obligation to life. |
|
|
| In the last two years, I have
stepped up my output, carving 12 of the 19 to date.
My task is to carve 100 rock doves, and then to see how many more I
can make, or if it is necessary to redefine my goal. |

My hope is that some one person may be
touched by each one of the doves, and either consider joining the cause of
peace
or
work a little harder in its service, or just be reminded that we
each have a right to say something.

We can never have too many doves. If you prefer to adopt
one of mine, ½ of the purchase price will go to a charity dedicated to
helping the victims of our nations wars.
Peace and Love,
