I call my studio “Tides Of Eternity” named after a completely original hand-painted and hand-crafted working clock design that I created © 1998.
My "Tides of Eternity" clocks illustrate the changing time of day through a series of painted trees that circle the center of the clock face. By coloring the changes in the foliage of the circling tree along with the rising & setting sun, my creation colorfully relates the changing time of one day to the changing seasons of one year. My original "Tides Of Eternity" creation is a completely hand-painted and hand-crafted working clock that I designed spontaneously in 1998. ~ I now understand it as a sort of "mandala", but at the time when I created it way back in the nineteen-nineties I had never heard of the word mandala nor did I know what one is. In my mind, the process was propelled by something along the lines of the cliché “one day at a time.” ……Though through the many layered processes of creating and naming it, it was and continues to be clear to me that I can endlessly find timely and timeless personal and universal meaning in each “Tides of Eternity” piece. *Someday I will have to do a more in depth blog about this artwork because there is so much more to this creation than could ever show in pictures. © 1998 Chrissy Breslin Schroeder |

"My New Trip Around the Sun ~ Wishing the whole world Peace, Hope, Joy and Love"
In “My New Trip Around the Sun” blog, I noted how my December 25th birthday aligns with Christmas Day and how I created a Christmas Card in 2000 based on my “Tides Of Eternity” original clock design.
"Christmas Cards with Little People in The Season of Peace & Joy"
This next link notes that my 2000 Christmas card design is based on and inspired by my own original “Tides of Eternity” clock creation which I made just after my sons were born, and around the time of both of my parents' passing, and in anticipation of a whole new and different century on this earth.
"May The Road Rise To Meet You"
In this link I noted how my “Tides Of Eternity” clock design inspired one of my hand painted and hand crafted Christmas cards and how the timing of the creations became relative to the passing of both my parents in the early 2000’s. ~ I also described how I crafted a special crystal bead trimmed version for my mom the December she passed away.
