Creating
furniture inspired by the things I find beautiful
—
the trunk
of an elephant, the wing of a bird, the legs of a woman
—
motivates me
as much today as it did thirty years ago when I began making furniture.
I love the way a finely finished surface reflects the light and enlivens
the hand. The first cut through a slab of curly maple still exhilarates
me. These things show in the work I do. With my work you get my excitement.
I make unusual furniture: elegant, beautiful and superbly built. I work with you to discover what will enrich your life. First you tell me about what you need — function, size, location, and unusual requirements. Then we discuss what you like about my work — which pieces in particular are you drawn to? Next I go to work sketching, modeling, and making prototypes: you say yes to this one; no to that one; add this detail from that other one. Eventually we arrive at the design and I begin to build.
If this speaks to you and if you like what you see, perhaps you would like to commission a piece of furniture. Please call or email and we can begin the discussion.
