Bar Code Blocks

When I moved into 78th Street Studios last July, I already planned on making a batch of my Bar Code Blocks.  I had made some a few years earlier, but never really planned to revisit them. People kept liking them and asking for them, though, and as I would now have my own studio in which to show and sell them, I figured that it was time for another batch. The wood was milled and ready to go, and I’d surely get some together by the 2017 Christmas Season. ​
It’s good for a new business to be busy. When I opened my doors, I knew there was restoration and repair work out there to be done. I had no idea how much, though. I would try to strike a balance between that work and the new work and art windows that I envisioned making. I have yet to find that balance.  There have been new commissions and creative work, yes, but the Bar Code Blocks remained on the back burner. The Holidays came and went. I set a due date for March.

Well, here it is March! I still hardly have the time to get these guys assembled, but I got the glass cut and laid out and am committed to having at least some ready for the Third Friday open house. I love these things. They are joyful and substantial and say almost nothing. Come and get ‘em!
