"Beautiful table"

Love the table, but was delivered with a chip out of one of the elephants leg, so it?s currently hidden away against a wall until I can try and repair it as the light color wood shower starkly.

"Beautiful music"

This piece of art sculpture was larger than I expected which gives it a solid presence. It is made of wood but the clean lines and colors show an artistry of one who can create movement, harmony and elegant poignancy using the carving knife like a conductors baton. Looking forward to seeing more examples of this artists work!
