Our designs are all original, the product of a slightly off-center imagination.  Arnie and I both have an art school education, in fact, that's where we met!  He buys, cuts, sands and prepares the wood, white pine, after which I transfer the design and cut the outline with my trusty exacto.  After the acrylic colors are applied and the lettering done, golden oak stain is brushed into the outline and also to the frame part of the picture.  A final coat of polyurethane for protection and it is given back to Arnie to have the leather hanger attached.  After one last critical look, it is tagged priced and ready for sale.

     One of the most enjoyable aspects of our craft is sharing a smile with a customer over a "chilly dog",  a "poached salmon" or a "chocolate moose" or . . .
