This table' design is a copy of the book's cover art. I really liked the thick lines and solid colors.
The blog is mainly to share my hobby - Wood-working and Wood-burning. Among my work you will find mainly children-friendly tables. I believe that playing, coloring and even doing homework on these beautiful tables is much more special and significant for them. Please feel free to leave a comment or suggestion :)

Oceanic Art Cubes
I came up with this idea while checking an Oceanic Art book. I really like the statues and other art items they used to make (hopefully some still do)
At the end of the day there are four figures that their halves fit perfectly when the cubes are rotated.
The numbers on the top are actually the pages where the originals are in the book I read.
I gave this very nice and lovely item to a good friend of mine - Ori - for his BD.
"The Great Wave off Kanagawa" by Hokusai (1830)
This is a new project - an end table with the famous painting on top of it.
I think i will try using shades and not colors for this one.
3/13: Done! I decided to draw Hokusai's self portrait. Next step is applying lacquer!!
3/9: Done! Now I will make the boats slightly darker and start thinking about the detail in the lower shelf (a small version of the mountain?)
3/8: I just finished the dark stripes and they are beautiful thanks to joy's advice!
Next step is adding a slightly lighter tone to the other stripes.
3/3: finished the shades and moving forward with the dark shades within the waves. If successful won't need to color the picture...
2/28: I just started the burning, and I am currently adding the shades around the waves' "fingers".
