“Melody in Motion”
Artist: Gail Cochrane
A rocking chair offers comfort, peace, and joy. Lovingly painted periwinkle blue with a yellow sunflower, it brings happiness to any home. Imagine yourself rocking gently, reading or relaxing, enjoying the soothing motion. This chair is meant for a loving home.
"Happy"
Artist: Laura Merrill
This colorful, comfy chair was inspired by vibrant fabric and matching paints. Painting it was fun, and my grandson loved naming the colors. He called it “happy”—I agree.
“Ani-Yun-Wiya”
Artist: Ruby Westmoreland
“Ani-Yun-Wiya,” meaning Cherokee, honors my mother and ancestors. The stool’s symbols—Sacred Circle, The Four Directions, The Sacred Tree, and more—reflect our heritage. Creating it helped me process losing my mom, who passed away at 52.
“Let’s Party”
Artist: Cindy Cochrane
Cindy’s chair reflects her joyful, fun-loving spirit. With playful flowers on a periwinkle base, it brightens any room. Use it as a nightstand, a child’s time-out chair, or a cheerful accent in your home.
“Dusk and Dawn”
Artist: Raven Sloss
Designing this chair was the best part. My friend and I worked late into the night, weaving for the first time. Inspired by a German design, it became a floral piece with sun and moon motifs for dusk and dawn. Despite the challenge, I love the result.
“The Beauty of Caddo”
Artist: Maureen Shallcross
Chair restoration: Laura Merrill
“The Beauty of Caddo” features Maureen’s oil paintings on restored antique chairs. Once abandoned, Laura saw their potential and collaborated with Maureen to revive them. After extensive repairs and upholstery, these chairs now showcase Caddo Lake’s beauty and make a stunning addition to any home.
“Penny’s Chair”
Artist: Becky Koese
“Penny’s Chair” honors a rescued thoroughbred who blossomed with care and love. Her portrait, adorned with soft florals, symbolizes renewal and the beauty that grows from care and compassion.
