He spends hours creating one-of-a-kind wire wrapped crystal jewelry as well as painted canvas.
Drum tuning/tightening and re-heading services
Michael's process for drum creation & re-heading takes several hours and incorporates many years of learning not only the process, but the spiritual relevance behind all that his teachers have shared with him. A lot of thought, intention, and positive energy goes into each drum he comes into contact with. Order a custom drum with a pre-paid deposit. A unique drum will be created for you, with ropes and fabrics that match your personality.
