Balance
Many of the things I try in life is about balance, although I have never quite tried this!
Love seatSomebody asked me for another love seat and this one has more of a family theme
Musical
shelvesThe “Song of Joy” was going to be a table but the first line was too long so I put it vertically
Flower TableThe wood is from my neighbours tree and I love the combination of colour and form
Flowing seatI saw some one do a seat in this form using all wood but I loved the idea of bending the metal into “natural forms
SicknessA friend has been stricken with cancer and I felt that any form of hospitalization was like being trapped in a golden cage. Lots of attention but not what you want!
ClotheslineThis piece was also for the wild dogs and I thought that if the exhibition went to China then a rotary clothes line would be a real oddity. I then thought of the song hearts on the line so I thought that would also be a bit of fun.
spring seatOriginally going to have full balls but they kept leaping out. I cut the frame down and also cut the balls in half. I think it still is comfy
Flower screenFlowers are fun to do and the idea of doing metal ones is sort of fun.
Running girlThis piece was inspired by a photo I took of one of our students at the aths. Her hair was streaming behind her and her style was very neat. This piece was a possibility for the wild dogs exhibition and I thought that most girls these days run in the streets with a dog for protection, hence the Doberman.

strange little stand involving a polished brass ball some blackwood and a
metal rack
Mirror
mosaic is fun to do. The stars will all have their own light reflections
