This leaf chair brought together my love for hand-shaping and
carving and the imagery of nature that inspires my work. The
challenge here was to use those techniques and imagery
effectively in a chair, the one piece of furniture that so
completely interacts with the human form. A chair is the most
difficult piece of furniture to design and build, thus, done
well, the most gratifying.
