Life is taking me some pretty amazing places these days, some of which require special gear (see photo).

Christine Rucker, Phoebe Zerwick and I are at work on yet another cool project, one in which we get to drop into the lives and workplaces of professional craft artists. Last month we visited with Joel Hunnicutt and Brian Bortz at the shop they share in downtown Siler City, N.C. Joel makes spectacular built and turned wood vessels with finishes that dazzle the eye. Brian is a fine furniture maker whose designs are Art Deco-inspired but take Art Deco to an entirely new level. Stay tuned to this space for their story … coming soon.
