I recently had an opportunity to meet Dave during a studio tour and share many life stories also found out about his passion for collecting. One story he told was about his collecting the "Flower Stone" sometimes called the Chrysanthemum Stone . . This gift of the stone arrived with his portrait. Dave spends many hours working the stone to polish and reveal the flower, this rock comes from Taylor Beach, BC.
