Express yourself with a distinctive piece of functional art that really is as unique as you are.

Lets escape virtual reality for a moment and get back in touch with all our senses!

I am excited to present a selection of unique eclectic pieces with a character that gets noticed. These are one-of-a-kind accent pieces to engage your imagination and to make a striking impact in your home. I sincerely believe that art shouldn't be confined to walls. MY furniture is a 3-dimensional, functional art that appeals not just to your eye but also to your sense of touch.

The purpose of my work is to create art to live with and to present creative energy to an environment. I take pleasure in providing you with the opportunity to satisfy your cravings for the unique and to further enhance your personal expression. That in turn is my greatest final reward.

I’m inspired by a subject’s character influenced by moods, seasons or time more than by its physical form. I also gather my inspirations from stories and legends, music, dream world and my imagination.

All of the artwork is hand painted on wood with one-of-a-kind designs. All unique pieces are signed and dated.
