Biographical Information: "I hope that this work will enhance the lives of those who's efforts are focused on bringing a balance and harmony to our society. It was a pleasure to be able to participate in this project. My own work is based on the enduring relationship between humankind and Nature. This print was burnished or printed entirely by hand (by the artist), and is the first edition printed at Stonewood Studio, in Damascus, Oregon. This area was once a vast farming community but is being endangered by the ever expanding highway system, because of my interest in Nature and our relationship with the natural world I am constantly amazed, bemused and sometimes alarmed at the lack of consideration for the aesthetic when we plan our communities in this beautiful place. My work occasionally reflects these concerns as well as the sensual and spiritual relationship we have with nature and how this is reflected in the ideals of the garden space." Ugrin, 1991
