Meet Debra Bernier
I created Shaping Spirit Sculptures from a place of deep connection to nature, spirit, and the emotional lives of women and families.
I live on Vancouver Island with my family, where I gather the driftwood and natural elements that inspire many of my sculptures. Each piece begins as an original work that I sculpt in my studio, surrounded by forest and ocean. Nature is my constant inspiration and the quiet presence that guides my work. From this space, forms emerge that speak of love, motherhood, grief, healing, strength, and belonging.
Over the years, thousands of my sculptures have found homes, and I have received thousands of heartfelt messages from people who feel personally connected to the pieces they give and receive. Many customers return again and again, collecting sculptures to mark meaningful moments in their lives.
I create these works as more than decorative objects. Each sculpture is intended as a symbol of comfort, remembrance, encouragement, or love. They are often chosen during life transitions such as birth, loss, healing, and personal growth. Retailers often find that customers are drawn not only to the beauty of the pieces, but to the meaning they carry and the stories they hold.
- Debra Bernier, Shaping Spirit -
Sculptures from the heart for the home -
“When we heal ourselves, we heal others. When we heal others, we heal ourselves.”
My mission as an artist is to create sculptures that embody deep feelings, a tangible symbol of the intangible.
Sometimes artwork allows us to speak when words fail. We are each on a journey of healing.
These sculptures are often created on themes like childhood healing, loss and celebrating the complexity of aging.
If you would like to contribute to this cause and make a donation, this actions helps fund my new projects of casting pieces that are affordable and accessible for people.
I'm always open to hearing suggestions for new sculptures / symbols for our shared journey.
With gratitude for your interest and support of my artwork,
- Debra
Let customers speak for us
This bowl is stunning, perfect for my altar.
Love the 6 pack magnets, strong, wraparound and beautiful creative images.
My piece is absolutely stunning! I’ll be back to collect a few more of these special pieces ❤️❤️✨
Beautiful piece and well made.
*Update- Debra reached out to me and was able to confirm that the shipment was lost. She was able to ship another one to me free of charge. I really appreciate the communication because I was worried it was a scam. I am appreciative of her professionalism and will order from her again.
I ordered this on the 8th.I still haven’t received it. I reached out on Shopify last week and on instagram
And nobody has responded. It was estimated be delivered on the 21st. Feeling a little disappointed as this is a gift for a friend
This thing is so beautiful in person.I'maleays skeptical when ordering online, but so glad I got this and I will definitely be ordering more in the future.
just amazing i love it
They were a Christmas Gift for my daughter. I was going to keep one, but due to my age, I decided it was best to gift to my oldest and she can gift to her daughers. I plan to buy me the bowl with bear if you don't have a wolf. I love your work, I just wish I could buy more but soon, abundance is coming my way
It's perfect!
Loved it!
Lovely way to heal the broken child.
Stunning bowl. I am just over the moon with it. Very well packed and quick delivery. Very happy customer
Love this bowl
This talking stick is truly beautiful and deeply intentional. From the moment it was placed in our circle, it carried a sense of reverence and grounding that invited each person to speak from the heart. Holding it felt like being held — supported, seen, and given permission to speak truth without interruption or judgment.
The craftsmanship is stunning, but what makes it special is the energy it carries. It naturally slows the room, encourages deep listening, and creates a sacred container where every voice matters. It has become more than a tool; it’s a guardian of the circle, reminding us of respect, presence, and the power of shared wisdom.
I’m deeply grateful to have this talking stick as part of our sacred circles. It has added depth, beauty, and meaning to our gatherings, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone creating intentional, heart-centered spaces. It serves as a reminder of the sacredness we all carry. Thank you.
It’s so beautiful and arrived in packing to protect it! I absolutely love it.
