"Guardian Castle," my collaboration with the brilliant miniaturist David Winter, marks the first time that I've ever worked with another artist. I was captivated by David's miniature castle sculpture--so grand and regal that it seemed to call for a heroic, naturalistic landscape as its proper setting. Anchored to its rugged hillside in England's mountain country, "Guardian Castle" commands the valley and peaceful village nestled below.
