Well, we’re here at the Western Design Conference, hanging out with friends from last year and making new friends.
Tim's "The Yellowstone" table and Walnut Desk with Chair
We are meeting lots of customers and really hoping someone will make a connection with one of Tim’s woodworking pieces and decide to take it home with them. We’d both really like not to have to take his “The Yellowstone” table and “Forest Muse,” the beautiful walnut desk home with us, no matter how much I’d like them in our own living room.
Here are the three pieces Tim entered into the juried part of the Western Design Conference exhibit.
The Yellowstone: Curly Mango, Lacewood, Padauk and Mahogany
"Forest Muse" Desk and Chair of Walnut
Right next to Tim’s pieces, Les and Tauni Powers, of Nature’s Forms, have an elegant booth with outrageous sculptural pieces by Les. My favorite reminds me of the wind dancing through the sandstone canyons at Zion, where we go with our shamanic study group every spring. Turns out, when I mentioned that connection to Les, he told me it is inspired directly by Red Canyon in Bryce, very close to where we go with our group.

I’ll post about Lou Quallenberg‘s incredible mesquite table tomorrow. For now, here’s a shot of Lou and 3 friends all woodworkers, and links to their websites. Check ‘em out:
