-
As a nationally recognized
rustic furniture artist, Jimmy Howard shows his works in many galleries
throughout the country including New York, Sun Valley & Park City,
Utah, Jackson Hole & Cody, Wyoming, Vail, Colorado, and Seattle,
Washington. His rustic art
has been featured in various books on rustic furniture including Chase
Reynolds Ewald's Cowboy Chic, Ralph Kylloe's book Rustic,
& Contemporary Western Design, by Thea Marx. The
magazines Adirondack Life, Log & Timber Style, Log Home
Design Ideas, and Cowboys & Indians have recently featured photos
of his work. Jim started
creating rustic pieces in the late 70’s when there were, “just a few
of us making rustic furniture in the Adirondacks of New York State”
where he lived. He is
currently building and creating in Seattle.
His work always adds a very unique and rustic feel to any room of
your home. He builds each
piece by hand and every one is signed and numbered. Jim gladly
accepts custom orders, although due to his busy flying schedule and
current orders in the works, you may have a few months wait for your
piece(s). Jim's history of working with sticks, twigs, bark, metal
& leather in his art of making rustic furniture is a passion that
lives in him every day. "There isn't a day that goes by that I
don't think about creating something unique. It doesn't matter if
I'm flying, skiing, or just driving down the road, I'm always thinking Rustic.
It's just a way of life I have lived for so long and it will never
leave me till the day I die."
