here is my "Watching the River Flow #1" Table (there are 2 more!) with it's new leg system, and up for sale at Mahon Hall - here on Salt Spring Island - Please visit if you can!
and below are the old style trestle legs to compare...
"Journey to the Sun" Table
My sofa/hall/sideboard table has now gone over to Mahon Hall. Yeah! The artwork is mixed media Plexiglas under safety glass, and very translucent so a lamp on the lower shelf would make the artwork so pop! It has the exact same dimensions as my Neptune Ambassador Table in my Furniture store.
"Journey to the Sun" plexiart inlay in local Salt Spring Cedar.
"New" table legs...
Back working on the "new" table legs for my River table. I say "new" because my friend Barry did the prototype for this new simpler leg set for my tables back in February, but it's only now that I've got around to getting them finished. So here is some of that process that I've been doing at Barry's shop. these images show the leg & table fastening systems, and a mock up of the finished table. I am just waiting for the finish on the table top to cure more so I can polish and then take down to Mahon Hall here on Salt Spring Island.
Work Inspired by Leonard Cohen...
This newest art work was inspired by a line in Leonard Cohen's song Anthem - "There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in". The finished work is acrylic on press-board. 2' X 4', and it will have a newly designed "slot rail" frame system, which I will show when it gets hung at the Salt Spring Gallery next week!
