I have to step away from The Rainbow Beat to focus on my health.

This is not permanent.
Just a temporary sabbatical.

I have to follow the advice of people healing me right now.

In the meantime I will be spreading joy with my new initiative:
.puppetgrams

Also....
I'm opening up my own school in September 2022.

I will post more about this once I have my school name registered & I have the contract signed to run my school on a 150 acre property.

Love & Gratitude

One last creative blast for 2021.....
Just one more!

Here's my latest creation.
Doing what I can to show young minds how simple creativity can be..

This is the music video for my song 'Rain, Please Go Away' from my album 'The Enchanted Forest & the Star of Evermore'.

Hope you'll dig this creative expression I created, for people of all ages to enjoy.

Love & Gratitude for all your support.

Hello & Sunshine!

I'm just stopping by today to share my next artistic expression.

It's a digital/paper stop motion video I created for a song off my most recent album release. The song is called 'A Bear Adventure'. I could have called the video 'Blood Sweat & Tears', given that I created it during a period of great pain & suffering (due to my Crohn's Disease), but I'll just go with 'a Bear Adventure' to keep things positive & joyful:)

To complete this project it required me to take over 13,000 still photographs. I also used 22 paper art scenes that I created (which took 400+ hrs to create).

I hope this video will bring JOY to all people who view it.
Gratitude & Love for all of your support & for taking the time to check out my inner creativity.

Sending you all LOVE & bright LIGHT vibrations.

A few moments ago....
TEFATSOE the Music Video went LIVE.

I've never done something like this before. I obtained permission to blend together an Animated Short Film with my final song off my most recent album release.

If you believe in me as an artist, perhaps you'll take 6 minutes to watch this spectacular video.

I was about to wave the white flag, but then some groovy lights Journeys of The Soul - A Healing Arts & Energy Wellness Haven & Miniature Masterpieces grabbed hold of my hand..

So. For now...
& somehow magically, my engine still runs.

To be honest, I haven't performed underneath the glowing moon before & it was breathtaking.

Furthermore, I also got to experience that same joyful exchange with children in the audience that I used to feel in the olden days.

Let's see where the wind blows this bird to next.
Untill then, peaceful vibrations

Love & Love & Love & Love

It's quite nice to get a break from performing virtually & take a trip back into the olden days; when creative lights were free to sing and share a rhythm or two....

Fortunately the skies were mighty blue in Mount Forest as I joined their community for some fun .mountforest


I met alot of wonderful people in Mount Forest. Among the wonderful people was a young shining light named
Seeing this young vibration bringing joy to so many children not only gives me hope, but it also brightened my day.

On a closing note..

Love & Light.

I've always hoped to perform for the Edmonton Public Library, and now I'm grateful & happy to share that I'll be performing LIVE in Edmonton, at the Edmonton Public Library, on July 6th!! - (but for me, it's the kind of 'LIVE' that exists 12 steps downstairs, in my basement in Southern Ontario;)

I'm happy to be connected with the EPL for a Summer performance with my puppets Ziggy & Chrissy.

My online show starts at 4pm (EDT) on Tuesday July 6th, 2021 - so if anyone in other provinces will be joining us, please take into consideration the time zone factor.

I love you.

Dear Humanity.
May I present to you a vision of mine.

I asked myself, 'How can I engage humanity to have fun, with their imaginations, inside their homes'.
Then as I sat there, watching my fingers wiggling, in shadow-state, on my wall and it all came together.

That's It! - We can have FUN-FUN-FUN with....shadows!!

If you dig what I'm trying to do here.
Please help me spread the word about engaging in some shadow dance fun.

I present to you all the first single off my newest creation 'Creatures of the Forest', from the album/stop motion feature 'The Enchanted Forest & the Star of Evermore'

Hello Human & Unicorn-Like Friends of Planet Earth!

If you missed my first show as The Rainbow Beat, which was hosted by The Brampton Public Library (Brampton Library) you can watch it here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfl-h-o_RjU&feature=youtu.be

If you have munchkins with you and you'd like to try something new together, perhaps you'll consider taking a peek!

Gratitude for all of your Love & Support.

www.youtube.com Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

My Extended Family.....
When I'm around these people....I'm glowing.
Love Ya Forever Telling Tales Team!

Every year we take a group photo of some of the fantastic folk that make Telling Tales possible. Of course, some were still working and others had to leave early. All are such a huge part of what makes Telling Tale so much fun. Huge thanks to our presenters, volunteers, staff, board and supporters on delivering the 11th Annual Festival with joy and laughter.

I am.....The Rainbow Beat
🌈 🌈
It's going to be a nice climb up the mountain, manifesting this change; but it's long overdue.
Things aren't going to change too much, but rather, they're going to get better.
I've decided to blend all of my strengths together & go out there with intention & purpose.
I've been spending days & nights inside the forest, preparing my soul for what lies ahead.
If you dig what I do, and what I'm all about, perhaps you'll consider following my new vibration at .
I'm closing out my final shows in 2019 as Mr. Chris & the Gassy Bubbles. Given that this change is time consuming I won't be too present on social media.
Oh & I'd also like to send gratitude to my friend Amanda ( for taking my vision to the next level & creating my new logo. It's perfectly wonderful!
Have a great day & chat soon.

Love.

✴️Adventures of a Dreamer✴️
🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘

I have a dream....
To turn every frown into a smile.
To spread Joy in every direction.
To sing my heart out & give you all of my positive energy..... always & forever.
Today, I had the opportunity to do just that & SHINE with my extended family ()
When I'm at Telling Tales, my heart beats mightier.
I think it shows in these awesome photos taken by my favourite tree fairy (.bylisatorti).

The beautiful rain came....and then magically disappeared right when me & the bubbles ( & ) took the stage for our second performance.
I manifested doing something special for this year. Sharon & Bram we're on the lineup. And I wanted to perform 'Skinnamarink' with the crowd using Kazoos that I made for everyone.
I got to spend some time backstage with them (didn't snap any pics with them, because that's not my vibe)..
But I did pull it off....and it was wonderful lifting the vibration even higher with all the kazoos being played by everyone.

You may not see me on social media much because I'm consumed with my transformation into The Rainbow Beat ()

I guess til next time...
Keep on shining bright.

Love & Light......................
