One day a while back I had quite a few antiques on my truck and drove up to an antique store - they noticed I had this old table and said it was a Mark Butcher piece. It wasn't in very good shape - I was going to take the legs off and put them in storage but when she said that I thought it was worth saving. So I made it into a coffee table.
I measures 26" by 42".
"HANDS ON: ALIENS IN THE ATTIC. Wacky, fun, iconoclastic--these are the hallmarks of a folk artist, and P.E.I. Native Kerras Jeffery has them in spades". NATIONAL POST Jan/2011
This blog shows the folkart I make, my reproduction furniture and other projects. My studio/shop is in my backyard. It's a couple of miles off the main road in West Prince County, Prince Edward Island, Canada. When you come to visit make sure you see – the "Olde Times" Garden House Museum; Grandma's Attic; the Furniture Box; Grampa's Loft (antiques, old doors, etc. in my Dad’s old barn loft); and my World's Largest Egg Beater, certified by Guinness World Records.
