"Seward built this chest-on-stand (16" D x 24" W x 74" H) for a gallery exhibition of his work. The stand and door frames are made of curly walnut, and the panels are book-matched walnut crotch wood. "Opening the doors reveals a stack of graduated drawers faced in iridescent bird's-eye maple," Seward said. The piece has an oil and varnish finish."

A journalist from the Washington Post bought a coffee table of mine from the Main Street Gallery in Annapolis, MD. Imagine my surprise when he   suggested that he write an article about my work for a popular magazine. It was a great honor to be portrayed by Walt Harrington in the pages of This Old House magazine.

"Oiled and buffed, the cabinet is aflame, rich and warm in transparent reddish shades, and tight, lavish grains."
Walt Harrington

This book from Taunton Press features the work of 125 American craftsman building custom furniture today. I'm proud to be included in this distinguished company.

"...to give his work a strong sense of visual unity, he sees to it that every bit of wood in a piece of furniture is taken from material harvested from the same log." Kerry Pierce
 

I have also had several pieces of my furniture published in the Current Works section of Fine Woodworking magazine. They suggested my work to Bill Hylton, an author writing a book about designing and building chests of drawers.

"...what hits you first is the figure of the wood. When you look closer, you see the meticulous craftsmanship."
Bill Hylton
