Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Adrian Lopez (Charlotte Perriand). Charlotte put Corbusier’s principles of into action when designing three chairs for two of his projects Maison La Roche (a house being designed in Paris) and a pavilion job for his clients Henry and Barbara Church. Corbusier required that one was designed for conversation (the sling-back chair), one for relaxation (square shaped LC2 Grand Comfort), and a third for sleeping (B306 chaise lounge chair, inspired by 18.

Woodworking 168: November 2011

http://woodworking168.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html

Tuesday, November 29, 2011. The End Grain Cutting Board. One of the most important tools for the home cook or Chef is the Chef's knife. Keeping a sharp knife is a matter of safety as much as it is a matter of efficiency. Plastic cutting boards are harder than wood cutting boards and will dull knives much faster than long grain or end grain wood. But is plastic more hygienic than wood?

Woodworking 168: December 2010

http://woodworking168.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html

Saturday, December 18, 2010. Reflection on Woodworking class. Friday, December 17, 2010. As an artist dealing with environmental issues, one quickly realizes that what material you choose to make your art out of becomes a major issue. Almost everything we touch today comes from non-environmentally friendly sources. Perhaps, the best way to be an environmentally friendly artist is to just not make art? This was an interesting topic to think about in relation to this woodworking class. This circles back to...

Woodworking 168: February 2011

http://woodworking168.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html

Saturday, February 12, 2011. I did a search for notable women woodworkers and chose Judy Kensley McKie partly because there's an extensive and intimate interview online (http:/ www.aaa.si.edu/collections/interviews/oral-history-interview-judy-kensley-mckie-12483) and because her work involved both furniture and sculpture. Also, she started out by studying graphic arts, which personally appealed to me. I also found that her son was murdered senselessly and she used that experience to create a sculpture to...

Woodworking 168: Julia Weber: Homemade Wood Stains

http://woodworking168.blogspot.com/2011/12/julia-weber-homemade-wood-stains.html

Sunday, December 4, 2011. Julia Weber: Homemade Wood Stains. Homemade nontoxic wood stains offer a great alternative to store bought woods stains. Commercial woods stains often contain chemicals, that are not only problematic environmentally, but may also pose a health risk. A variety of methods can be used to create inexpensive, natural wood stains with ingredients that may even be found in the kitchen, such as black tea, vinegar or walnut hulls. Pennies soaked in vinegar. You made some good points ther...

Woodworking 168: September 2010

http://woodworking168.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html

Thursday, September 30, 2010. An artist's responsiblity to entertain. The biggest problem I had with the Zero 1 Festival, was the often lumbering and awkward presentation that kept cropping up. Even professor Wright, a woman who willingly went to Finland in winter -thus a proven tolerance for slowly paced days- complained about dullness of many of the speakers. However, I think it safe to say that art, well, should. Afford to assume their audience is educated and patient, they can not afford to drone.
