An extraordinary piece that Blair has created is this beautiful angel that he has named "Forgotten". The angel was hand crafted from a dying tree (on his Haliburton property) that he has had his eye on for several years. The tree was struck by lightening and then continued to grow for many years later. Blair envisioned the split in the trunk to be the wings of an angel and waited patiently for nature to take it's course. As the existence of the maple tree came to an end, he brought it back to life once again in this beautfiul art form.

The couch table is almost complete. Here are some photos - you will have to use your imagination to envision the final look.The temporary plywood top will be replaced with glass, and the finishing touch will be the cold pressed steel feet....

Blogging is new to us - to be honest we are a little overwhelmed right now with the whole Social Media concept and all of the different forms of networking and marketing tools that are available! Recognizing that business success in this era depends so much on internet browsing, we are now official "Bloggers", so here it goes.....

Blair is now working on a unique "couch table" made from a fallen tree that caught his eye.  He envisioned what he would create, and the idea stuck in his head until he began. The grain of the wood is amazing!! Here he is in the early stages....

The table top will be made from 10 mm tempered glass. The glass top will provide for constant appreciation of the beauty of the wood. The detail along the sides of the piece is made from stainless steel woven wire that is laced through rivets. The feet are designed from 2 1/2 inch cold rolled steel, distressed, and then formed by hand. More pictures to follow....
