Crop Circle Book , 1996, Neon, Carved acrylic sheet, straw, wood, and fence materials
Edition of 3
The individual crop circles in the Crop Circle Book are labelled as to name, if any, location and date. It would be wonderful if the crop circles were still unexplained and possibly extra terrestrial, but that has been well debunked. The fact that they are made by humans does not in any way diminish the accomplishment or the beauty of the circles themselves.
This book was completed with the financial assistance of the Ruth Chenven Foundation

A Maze Book , 2000, Neon, Carved acrylic sheet, Wood, Circuit board, and toy mazes
Edition of 4
The labyrinth cut through the front cover may very well be the primal labyrinth. It is found throughout the world, from 5000 years ago to the present. The inside front cover is a pavement labyrinth from St. Quentin Cathedral in France. The first page is a turf maze from Pimperne in England that was destroyed in 1730. The second page is a turf maze in Saffron Walden in England which still survives. Inside the back cover is the pavement labyrinth from Chartres Cathedral in France. And finally, the back cover is a printed circuit board, surely the modern labyrinth.

Haiku Journeys, 2004, LED, Laser-etched acrylic shee, wood and raffia
Edition of 8
The covers of this unusual book are made with Raffia over wood. When open, the eight pages fan out into a half-circle, the cover latching together to hold the shape. The haiku are all from the classic era of Japanese haiku and all eight deal with travel or journeying in one form or another.
