Most of you know my dad is an artist. He makes custom furniture, altars, paintings and various other pieces. He's a jack of all trades, but there's always been creativity with anything he does and after years of being a master carpenter, a tattoo artist and who knows what else I think he's really found his niche. I'm lucky to have several of his pieces around the house, and the latest addition is a beautiful hutch cabinet that he converted from an old wardrobe. It was a big rectangular piece, but he completely changed the shape and added cabinets, complete with old glass doors.
Isn't it lovely? He refers to it as a future family heirloom (a phrase lacking his characteristic modesty) and I wholeheartedly agree. I have some other wonderful pieces of his that I'd love to include here, but I need to take better photos to do them justice. In the meantime, check out his work at ashlandgalleryhouston.com. He does a lot of custom work - special discount for friends of mine (hint hint!)
