The train (used to?) move between Epping Station and Old Mutual Station for a month on a Sunday. It is an unenspiring short straight ride but this was apparently due to the xhorbitant costs charged by the national rail operator to make use of the commercial rail routes. It at least gave the chance for youngsters to see, smell and experience a steam train ride.

'Book of Hope- Page 6- Creating Tomorrows'
24" x 24" (nails, resin, enamel, acrylic on wood)
sold private collection
Emerging out of my previous Letters to Whom It May Concern, the Book of Hope is an ongoing series, begun in 1999, with one new page created slowly every few years.
Inspired by the common thread of ritual found in nearly all cultures and religions, each 2 foot square wall-piece is a tactile 'page' containing a composed text of prayers, wishes and visualizations for the years ahead. Created in the spirit of the European monastic scribe illuminating manuscripts or a Tibetan monk creating a sand mandala, these works are 'sent' as messages requesting guidance for the peaceful evolution of humanity.
