You are free now.
I bring you Swords to cut the bonds which have held you back. To set you FREE of past vows, mistakes, addiction, karma/ ancestral claims, trauma, loss, addiction, and slavery to money. The Sword is the symbol of a being who provides for others and protects those around them. The symbol of a servant. One who has stared death in the face and awaits their turn. But until that time we will do all we can to serve those who are weaker than us. We have been sent to assist and free each other with the strengths and gifts which make us each unique and powerful.

This is chivalry. This is nobility. We unite for freedom. We use that freedom to live in our power in the here and now, loving all who cross our path. We stand for love, compassion, abundance, gratitude, service to all of earth's creatures and the right for all to be free.

The Sword of Damokles (2025) Originally a Greek Fable illustrating the perils faced by those in power, despite what may appear to be splendour to the commoner.
It is said that when Damocles flattered King Dionysius for the happiness the King enjoyed in such splendour and luxury, the King proferred Damocles throne for a day, complete with a feast and attendants. However upon assuming the exalted position Damocles noticed a sword hanging precariously above the throne, suspended by a single horse hair.
Damocles soon begged to be relieved of his position.

🤮🤢This AI crap is getting out of hand. Not only am I being inundated with people sending AI images asking if I'll make that slop, now the bots themselves are trying to commission me?! ☠️
Please folks, I would rather you sent me a scribble that looks like a 5yo drew it, along with a description of your ideas and desires and dreams, than any AI created image. I make my own designs which I draft in consultation with my clients. Using AI to cut artists out of the creative process is just gross. Stop doing it, please. Thats not how it works.
Im nearing the point of not even replying to AI image requests. And no, I didnt click the link...

Have you made a wand or a walking stick before?
Throwback to some of the wands I've made - its been years since I made some wands but they're so fun to make, such a cool canvas for unique expressions. I mostly use a belt sander and rotary tool when sculpting my wands, not unlike how I make many of my metal sculptures. Highly recommend making some 10/10 😃👌🪄✨️

I actually recently made myself a really cool walking stave for the ren fair from a deceased Poplar sapling, turned a cool brass foot for it with a little high tensile steel spike insert, carved some vines and then coated in epoxy with gold mica. That was fun. ☺️🧙‍♂️
