    do you all remember the faux bois artist from Houston?

    years ago I showed you all the work of Donald Tucker. http://www.makersgallery.com/concrete/gg-tucker.html

    Last week I took a workshop with him in Tennessee and learned some advanced cement sculpting methods

    here are a few of my pieces

    That is so cool. We have a table and benches in the art form that my wife insisted upon buying. It has made several moves at considerable effort, but worth it. If you acquire the skills, they can be turned into a cash cow with artistic ability your examples show you have.

    I would be curious who the artist was that made your set. There are several "legendary" faux bois artists in Tx. Tucker being one of them, Carlos Cortez is another.... I am so full of ideas but really need the start designing so I can get the armatures underway over the winter
