And a few more...





Oh, wait I found more!




Last one for now?


This is one of the individual chimes from the below mentioned chakra set. The top piece is made out of Lacewood.

Just a few more for now.


This is an artsy photo of a set of 3 chimes based on the Crown Chakra. Each chime contains the Root, 3rd, 5th, Octave pattern. The chimes represent the One Chord, the Four Chord and the Five Chord. This is a very common musical progression and the chimes play harmony and melody. It just blows me away how cool the music is. Normal wind chimes based on melody I usually find pretty annoying most of the time. These chimes I can sit and listen to for hours.

And then....even more


Paloma painted the wood parts for this chime.

More Zen Chimes.


A U.S Constitution chime. Built to honor the founding of the country. I built two of these. One for my Mom and one I sent to my friend Charles.

A chime set built to honor the life of Jerry Garcia. This chime is based on harmony. That is why I have chosen only 4 tubes. The tones are the Root, 3rd, 5th and Octave. This was sent as a gift to the Rex Foundation in San Francisco.

Art

Here you can view the art I have created over the course of time. Most of the work over the last 5 years is music related. Mainly wind chimes, tubular bells, zen chimes I have also made an attempt at some string instruments.
