Diane Swan Galleries Mad Scientist in a Wood Shop
A Cabinetmaker Wood Artist for 46 years I’ve been working with wood for 41 years. Wood is my pallet.

Most of that time as a cabinetmaker, but the last 10 years doing wood art. I love flows, curves, curls, and surprising colors found in wood. I dream designs and then play with form. I paint pictures and forms from the natural designs of the wood I find.

I've held onto this gorgeous piece of curly wormy for about 8 years. Time for it to go to a friend for a table top.

Just a reminder that I am NOT open for Studio Tour this year.
I am in the CAG brochure because it was published before I was out of work for a few months due to surgery.
I am working now and will have a showing of new work this spring with other artists.
Thanks for all the support.
New exciting works are in process!

Due to a recent surgery and my need to heal, I will not be open for the Chatham Artists Guild's 33 annual Studio Tour.
I was scheduled to be open second weekend. I will not be able to finish the pieces I started in September before that time. I will show them here, as I finish them. And you are welcome to contact me to view them privately after studio tour.

There are many wonderful artists to see. So please have fun with this.
But # 20, will be closed the second weekend.
Thanks so much for your continued support! ~diane
