Photo Studio in the Workshop

Photographing boxes is so much easier than wall art! There are back-drops, lighting, attachments, shadows and reflections to consider. I've finally got the equipment I need to produce some decent images of my wall art. See my re-vamped Wall Art page for the results.
It was pretty warm in there today as I was unable open the door as my work was suspended from it!
All in a day's work!

Look for the distinctive signs throughout the area directing you to their galleries and workshops.

Two boxes I have recently finished, Eclipse and Helios, represent Night and Day, Darkness and Light. Made from Jarrah and New Zealand Lacebark, two beautifully coloured woods which contrast and complement each other.

An ideal present for storing your precious things - earrings, rings, cufflinks.
