Artist Interpretation: "This Adirondack chair design, an exercise in symmetry, was inspired by the beauty within the National Park and this entire region of Arkansas.

"Back-lit against a huge golden sun, the Mountain Tower guides your eye down through the forest, to the sparkling spring-fed stream.

"How does it feel to sit on the 'wet-and-rocky' seat?

"I dedicate this chair to Dorisanne Stites, gifted art teacher (now an Alzheimer's patient), who many, many years ago awakened my right brain as she patiently guided a pre-teen me to notice and honor the true visible colors and forms in nature. Dorisanne taught me to see!"
