Artist Profile - Jim Engelhardt - 3D Mixed Media


Jim Engelhardt creates unique and individual one of a kind tables, wine cabinets, display cases, and pedestals. Each piece is crafted from architectural elements he salvages from antique stores, flea markets and salvage yards.

The design of each creation is usually dictated by the architectural element he chooses, but may change as the work progresses. Sometimes he has a design in mind, then chooses the element that will most enhance the piece. Each of his creations is glued, nailed, and biscuit jointed for strength. He takes great care to ensure that no rust, weathered paint, moss, or weathered portions of wood are disturbed.
