Studio Furniture - is an artists furniture creation that is a one of a kind piece, or at the very most,
                          a limited edition. Studio furniture often follows the same rules as fine art. Color design, design theory,
                          proportion all have their place in fine studio furniture. 

                                 With a focus on creating modern, contemporary studio furniture, sculptural and wood art, a large part
                          of the aesthetic in my designs is influenced through the Art Moderne period comprising Art Deco styling.
                          My work is also informed through the Modern period of design, and much of my work can be characterized
                          with contemporary variations of these periods and inclusion of design elements from these styles.

                                                                     
                                                           
                          The contemporary style of studio furniture I create has simple, clean lines with a combination
                          of subtle and dramatic features while emphasizing original, unique design. My designs combine both
                          rectilinear and curvilinear components and center around both form and function. My sculptural work
                          is decorative whereas my wood art can be decorative, functional or both.                 

                          The design methodology I adhere to is both modern and contemporary, Contemporary design
                          utilizing traditional joinery and finishing. Most recently, I have delved into mixed media designs,
                          combining wood, metal and glass into my work, embracing complementary mediums to wood.
                          As an artist, I enjoy challenging himself with new techniques and processes, often drawing
                          inspiration from the natural organic forms which surround us in our environment.

                          The tendency today is to apply both stain and film finishes to furniture, which mask both the color
                          and texture of the wood and give an artificial appearance to the surface of wood. I instead apply
                          finishes to maintain the subtle texture which also protect the wood.
