The Perception of Doors: Nora Hall is a Human Treasure
http://perceptionofdoors.blogspot.com/2009/03/nora-hall-is-human-treasure.html
The Perception of Doors. Projects, comments, observations. Sunday, March 29, 2009. Nora Hall is a Human Treasure. Nora Hall is an 87 year old third generation carver originally from Amsterdam, now living in Michigan. She learned to carve in the Classical European style from her father and has been carving for around 70 years. I just returned from three days of instruction with her. I am a lucky guy. Plenty, it turns out. March 8, 2012 at 6:07 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome. Come in.

The Perception of Doors: The Cloud Lift
http://perceptionofdoors.blogspot.com/2009/04/cloud-lift.html
The Perception of Doors. Projects, comments, observations. Wednesday, April 22, 2009. I'm thinking now, though, of one detail, the cloud lift. The Cloud Lift probably originated in China and shows up extensively in Chinese furniture like this lamp table. If the cloud lift was a sound it would barely squeak. if a musical passage it would be a whole tone interval played "pianissimo". 65279;. Labels: arts and crafts style.

The Perception of Doors: My Current Project
http://perceptionofdoors.blogspot.com/2009/03/my-latest-commission.html
The Perception of Doors. Projects, comments, observations. Tuesday, March 17, 2009. Even the drawing is simpler. The customer liked the design for the exterior door, and although one of the consequences of the ravaged economy was to postpone the exterior work on the renovation, they chose to use the more elaborate design for the ten interior doors. Setting up a tool for a specific operation can take far more time than the actual milling of the part. Labels: arts and crafts style doors.

The Perception of Doors: My Bug Door
http://perceptionofdoors.blogspot.com/2009/06/my-bug-door.html
The Perception of Doors. Projects, comments, observations. Monday, June 15, 2009. I had an idea rattling around in my head for a while, several years in fact. I'm always scanning the horizon for forms that will translate well into carvings. I loved experimenting with Celtic knotwork and imagery in shallow relief. The lines stand off the background in something of the same way that veins stand off the skin. I love that veinous quality, especially when it is exaggerated by inter-twining. I was having some ...

The Perception of Doors: May 2009
http://perceptionofdoors.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
The Perception of Doors. Projects, comments, observations. Saturday, May 30, 2009. We found a great source for the shoji paper in Wisconsin. eshoji.com. They offer a broad selection of materials ranging from the traditional washi, usually, and incorrectly referred to as rice paper, to rigid translucent panels for outdoor use. We chose a laminate that is flexible and light, like paper, but far more durable and washable. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Floating World Wood Design. View my complete profile.

The Perception of Doors. Projects, comments, observations. Wednesday, March 4, 2009. The Seal of Martin Luther. The seal was a pleasure to carve. The Celtic cross was not so much. It was a lot of detail to coax out of a very coarse grain. Here's the cross:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Floating World Wood Design. Nora Hall is a Human Treasure. The Seal of Martin Luther.
