Natalie works exclusively with nature, specializing in stone that has been shaped by the elements, wind and time. Primarily an art form of spirituality and interpretation, the stones Natalie has worked with become singular art pieces, or collections of related works. Some of her works have become the main feature in fireplaces., installed permanently as a valuable enhancement to stone hearths. Outside works by Natalie include a ten ton monument to Native Spirituality, balanced on three points it represents the balance of body, mind and spirit. There is a web site connection to it from The Forks Read more about Pictographs- Stone Paintings- The oldest form of art in history. Natalie uses her own carefully prepared paint that she makes out of crushed rock and oxides to coax the already present images from the stone. The content of the paint binds permanently to the surface, becoming part of the stone and is often difficult to distinguish from the actual stone. Powerful imagery is only surpassed by the interpretive spirit of the stone, with healing, balance and wisdom of nature conveyed through the stone to Natalie's messages that are included. In times of extraordinary change and ultimate trials, our greatest ally is our inherent sense of Spirit and Hope. The term "Rock & Water" represents the ability to rise above the challenge of rushing waters by embracing the powerful wings of healing by recognizing our own strengths. Natalie collaborates with the Canadian Clothing Designer Linda Lundstrom where her Native Designs are incorporated into LAPARKA as well as other products. "Rock and Water" book Natalie is writing about the stones. Natalie has done various commissioned designs, which include both a Logo which is displayed on the Royal Bank Website, as well, she did the design of a Website.
