Pedestal Table and Two Stools

This table is made from a large pedestal that I recycled and added a top and a base made from the top of a stool. I found the stools at a yard sale and decided to paint the set with a sunburst pattern. The suns are marbelized in shades of yellow and ochre and the base has a peachy marbelized base. The background is a teal blue/green and I've added stars and spirals in copper.

Perfect for a small kitchen, a sunroom, or anywhere you'd like to have a place to enjoy a glass of wine or a snack.
This set is available for sale at The Joyful Jewel, a gallery in Pittsboro, NC. It is $275.00.  SOLD

February at the Joyful Jewel

I'm the featured artist for February at the Joyful Jewel gallery in downtown Pittsboro. Here are some of my paintings, my booth, my featured wall, and a painted dresser with a marbelized top.

Marbelized Table and new painting

This painting is listed on my Etsy site and is for sale framed. The frame is a recycled piece that I found at our wonderful local Habitat store. The painting is titled "After the Harvest".

The table is also a recycled piece and has a green marbelized top and the wonderful ornate legs and base are antiqued with a coordinating green glaze.

This piece is currently being shown at the PAF gallery in Siler City. The current show is by Chatham Artist Guild members, a preview of our annual studio tour. There will be an opening this Friday at the gallery from 6 to 9 PM [ September the 18th] in conjunction with the Third Friday Art Walk in Siler City.

Painted table

This table was brought to me by a client. She got it from an uncle and it had sentimental value for her so she wanted it to be painted as a focal point in a bathroom, using bright colors . 

Here are "before and after" photos. I enjoy projects like this, they are a form of recycling! 

I wonder how her uncle would have liked it !

Laurel Ridge

I've just painted a pair of tables for Laurel Ridge Bed and Breakfast in Chatham County, North Carolina, where I live, too. They are octagon shaped tables to go in front of their sofa. The bases are marbelized and the tops have a parchment finish with flowers painted on top. The flowers are painted in colors that coordinate with the fabrics and the lovely oriental rug.
