Event Description
For professional woodworker Todd McAneeley mirrors are a perfect opportunity for artistic expression. In fact, each of his mirrors is an original work of art reflecting the rugged, natural beauty of the west coast.
A furniture maker with more than twenty years of experience in the Cowichan Valley, Todd works with wood offcuts, mostly big leaf maple, to craft rich, warm frames, smooth to the touch. Some of his creations are simple designs highlighting the natural gain of the wood, while others are more sculpted and abstract. Each frame is a work of art, the result of hours of planing, sanding, and sculpting.
Todd began his wood working career in 1997 after receiving his Benchwood-Joinery certification at Malaspina College (now Vancouver Island University). Over the course of his woodworking career, he has owned and operated a cabinet and furniture making business in the Cowichan Valley. Since 2011, he has worked for Live Edge Design, a nationally-renowned local company that creates one-of-a-kind furniture from salvaged trees.
In addition to mirrors, Todd also creates artistically carved doors that reflect the grandeur of life on the West Coast. Todd will have one of his doors on display at the Imagine That display. For those wanting something a little special, he will take custom orders.
