Disabled table

In bog oak veneer and boxwood inlay from around 1999. This is one of my personal favourites but it is one of the least popular pieces I have made. I thought I'd lost any photographic record of it. I made it while I was a technician at the university of Wolverhampton. I would look from the fourth floor and lose my sense of scale. It was about using classical cabinet making decorative techniques to show the fantastic within the mundane.

2009

I think this was taken around 2009. Rosie, Karen and Andy Lee.

Stairwell moths

Nice to see a dotted border out early. Nice looking moth . The female can't fly and presumably does all the housework while the male goes out exploring. I woke up in a miserable state hoping to improve as the day progressed and the sight of a moth on the stairwell door came as an uplifting surprise that got my move in a better place. They are fairly common and can be spotted from February to April.
