This wardrobe was created with used and discarded materials. There is plenty of room for clothes hats and shoes with the benefit of keeping discarded materials out of a landfill.

This table and cabinet will resemble cast iron when complete. I had it suggested to me that I should post some pieces in different stages of my process. I plan on adding sparkles and dangly bits, too. Hopefully I will have an update soon.

Just before the pandemic, I had been taking classes and developing recipes in preparation for opening a vegan restaurant. As I age, I want to change careers to something meaningful and easier on an older body. At that time, I was still very busy with murals and faux. As the pandemic raged, my decorative painting business came to a halt. Also, I realized how vulnerable the restaurant business can be. I had also been working on a few pieces of furniture made from used and discarded materials. While I believe veganism is great for the planet and prevents so much suffering, I also think reusing, reducing and recycling are as important for a sustainable future. With the support of my sole investor, Anthony Francis, I have been able to build up an inventory of furniture. This year studiosandi will be participating in the Silicon Valley Open Studios. We purchased the half page ad, a copy of which is posted below.

This little guy is sculpted out of used paper, for example junk mail, food packaging and cardboard boxes. It has 4 magnets on the hands to hold messages up in the air. The magnets were rescued from a discarded shower curtain. The stand is a combination of the stick from a broken window blind, a blue tube left over from new construction and a cool little copper stand I found at Goodwill Thrift store. It is currently at KALEID Gallery in San Jose, CA. If you are into a wide variety of art, you will love KALEID Gallery.
