Quick note. My website has been updated with new chair images if you'd like to check them out. Hope you are having a great summer so far!

Little Traveller

Hello,

The Little Traveller, as I've named the latest chair, is almost complete. Today I am putting on the finishing touches and tidying up loose ends. Tomorrow I will apply the first coat of varathane. I've really enjoyed painting this chair. It has an element of humour and whimsy that has held my interest for the past few months.

I'll be posting images here and on my webite is a couple of weeks. The chair will be delivered to it's new owner next weekend so I have to be patient. I'm looking forward to sharing it with you.

New Design Comps

My latest chair design, like the Korean/Canadian chair, is a great educational tool... for me! I'm learning about various cultures.

Seen here, we have the story of a traditional Colombian taxi as it zooms past beaches (coast to coast), farm fields, sugar cane fields, and through the city of New York. There are personal touches along the way that reflect family heritage and name sakes. Most importantly the bridge of a young boy between his heritage and his birthplace.

I hope I do the story justice! If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to send me a note.

New Chair Underway

I have a new chair design underway and I'm really looking forward to working on it. The theme is a blend of Colombian country and New York city buzz. The design will also have a travellers feel about it.

For those of you who are curious, here is an image of the Korean/Canadian inspired chair. If you have any questions about a chair that you may like to work on with me please feel free to contact me. I check my messages everyday.

All the best!

Poll

Thanks to those of you who voted for your favourite theme chair on my poll. Farm Yard was the favourite! I've been collecting inspiration for that theme and hope to get something started in the next few months.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Hello friends!

It certainly has been awhile since my last posting but I wanted to let you know that I am alive and well! In November I started a new part-time job working in a sign production shop in more of a managerial role, and it has been a good experience... so good that I'm taking the job on a full time basis in the January.

As for chair designs... my Winnie-the-Pooh client has realized the importance of original and personalized design. We will be hashing out the details in January but I think it will be another multi-cultural chair inspired by Colombian, US and Canadian cultures. Very cool! I'll keep you posted. ;)

I wish you all a safe and joyous holiday season.
Sincerely,
Kelly

The Korean Inspired chair is complete! I love it. I still have to apply one more coat of varathane and then the chair will be totally completed. This weekend I'll be delivering it to it's new owner. It's an amazing feeling to look at a finished piece... I often ask myself if I really did it. Once the chair is in the hands of the owners I will be able to post the pics on my website. Check back next week to see it.
