- Tree Crown Dreams - Eco-Consciousness / Cinematic Arts -
Through working in and exploring Pacific Northwest wilderness for multiple decades, my passion is to raise awareness about the importance of primeval ecosystems and the multiplicity of services they provide to humanity and to our global biosphere at large.
My mission is create bold, eco-consciousness expanding Work.

Naneth Cenedril is the name of an old growth Douglas Fir tree that I have been befriending and exploring in the Upper Rutsatz legacy forest that is at risk for being clear-cut and turned into an industrial tree plantation by The Washington State Department of Natural Resources.
A legacy forest is a forest that was once logged only for the biggest and easiest trees before the days of chainsaws and herbicide. These forest often contain true old growth remnants. Since these forests were not clearcut and not converted into industrial tree farms, they have naturally regenerated and are now aging into a titan of carbon and purest water, a cathedral of climate resilience and irreplaceable biodiversity, a haven for at risk species fighting to fend off extinction.
Legacy forests like this could be the beginnings of a magnificent legacy we leave for our grandchildren’s grandchildren, yet this beautiful and healthy native, forest -- and many others just like it -- on Washington State public land are currently unprotected from being clear-cut and converted into industrial tree farms.
Nearly all ancient native Pacific Northwest forests have been logged and converted into industrial plantations. Tree plantations are not forests, they are artificial tree farms, herbicide soaked landscapes designed to maximize short term revenue. These lands are not even managed to maximize wood production or jobs. We are left with matchstick monoculture wastelands that pale in comparison to the climate resilience power and ecosystem wealth of legacy forests.
Tree consciousness is based upon a share-system where trees support their own kind and countless other species by giving and receiving nutrients, minerals, and vital information. Tree consciousness is an enlightened state of existence where resources are managed for the greater good and resilience of the system.
