"Catch A Wave

and you're sittin' on top of the world..." Love that old Beach Boys song. Here's one of my latest designs. I call it "The Wave". It's got the same comfortable pitch as my Weekender chair but with a bit more flair. As I write, we have 30 degrees of Fahrenheit, with wind chills in the low 20's. Welcome to spring in Maine. But it won't be long now. Summer's on the way. The folks will be opening up their cottages and returning to the beaches. The surf will indeed be up and you'll be sitting on top of your world. Catch a Wave chair today and you can enjoy summer all year long.

Paint It Black

I made these chairs for Rob Henry. He has has a camp on Peak's Island in Casco Bay. He was pretty cool about the design, giving me full artistic control except for the color. "I don't care what they look like but I need to have them painted black." You know what they say about the customer always being right. I think in this case, Rob hit a home run.

Springs Green

Nature's first green is a wonderful hue. With the first day of spring now only a week or so away, I am already seeing some flowers pushing up through the leaves in our garden. Of course in Maine we are about to enter Mud season. But that's ok, for out of the brown muck always springs glorious green.
