These pieces represent the merging of drawn, fabricated, and implied lines creating a three-dimensional drawing. The pieces also explore the ornamentation and inherent qualities of wood. Burning lines, drilling holes, and adding elements are ways I change the wood. My additions are reactions to what the wood or the initial burnt drawing presents to me in shape, pattern, line, or texture. Kate Furman

These are wonderful! Love the colors and space divisions!
Love these fabulous organic and yet whimsical pieces. They look so delicate and light. The mix of wire and wood is superb.
