WOW! It’s already September, and we haven’t sent out a newsletter since April, but don’t worry, we have been busy. So thank you for being patient and subscribing to my occasionally random newsletter about the goings-on in my studio.
Featured Creation
The Semi Elliptical Table
This table was a fun one to design since it is half an oval. From the center of the arch to the back edge of the table, each segment had to be cut at a different length and angle to achieve the oval shape.
The top was silver leafed, and a patina was added with sulfur potash to add some contrasting colors and wild movement in the top.
The legs are tapered with an oval shape from top to foot, which I achieved using a spokeshave to feather in the final form by hand.

Black Forest Arts and Crafts Guild

12530 Black Forest Road
Colorado Springs, CO 80908This show is hosted by the Black Forest Art and Crafts Guild, a portion of the proceeds goes to a college scholarship fund which is awarded annually to a local graduating high school senior.
I will not have any furniture in this show, but it will feature my scrap wood projects. I gather up all the scrap wood left over from my furniture projects and build cribbage boards, cutting boards, boxes, and whatever else I can think of. It has been a great way to clean up the shop and raise some money to fund other art projects, as well as help send a young mind to collage.
