“The way to get started is to stop talking and start doing.” – Walt Disney
Country Singer/Songwriter/Artist - Jamey Johnson
Jamey owns two pieces of my art and a custom USMC Adirondack chair that is proudly displayed in his home. If you don't know who Jamey Johnson is, we probably shouldn't be friends. If you still want to be friends, give the video below a listen and then go out and buy his albums. Trust me, he is really freaking good and way better than the country rap crap that is on the radio now.
I created this piece for a buddy. Josh is a former wrestler and coach who now lives in Tennessee and travels around singing. He is a great guy that does a lot of shows for assisted living homes. He has a soft spot for the elderly population and has written the song below as a tribute to the devastating effects of Alzheimer's. Give the song a listen as you scroll through the progression of making this piece of art for Josh.
Handcrafted quality
Educator, carpenter, coach, artist, and shade tree philosopher; I consider myself a renaissance man that enjoys American and British Literature that I teach to my high school students as well as creating art works from rough hewn wood; building furniture and crafting something useful from a simple piece of wood as well as coaching golf. I am a writer and crafter, a wrestler, golfer and reader, and it is my desire to promote creativity in my students and peers by modeling and sharing my unique art and musings.
Every item I make is hand made, hand drawn, and hand painted. I do use CNC and laser cutting machines to help me create my art work, but I still break out a jig saw, scroll saw, pencils, and paint brush on just about every piece. Every piece of art work is unique in that the wood behaves differently to the paint and finish. I do use patterns that I have created through the process for a consistent size, but in the end every piece has subtle differences. Most of my art is created for family and friends and I don't mass produce anything, regardless of the order. Each and every wood art creation is hand crafted using simple tools.
Below are some things I have created for family, friends, students, and some new friends. With cornhole boards, I try not to repeat the exact board if it is possible. I have created multiple sets of the same design and found it to be excruciating; so I tweak each set to give it a unique look. I have recently started experimenting with epoxy and have included a few of those items.
