1994- Peace Pole

1994 Original painting, acrylic on canvas, 36"x 40". Created for the 'World Peace Prayer Society', reproduced as the poster for 'The International Year of the Family'.

Planting of a Peace Pole outside Penny's 'New World Gallery', Anguilla.

I was asked to make a poster for the World Peace Prayer Society. I wanted to do it because I had a vision of the planet encircled by rainbow light, with the human family forming a giant prayer wheel, bringing peace and blessings to the earth. As a gift for my offering, a Peace Pole was donated to me by the society. It was planted with a special ceremony including local officials, the British Governor and high school students. It was at the completion of my time on the island and I was pleased to be able to make this gesture and plant an intention for peace on a beloved island.
