Diana and her passion for art, in all its forms

She loves the challenge of transforming a simple idea into something unique and beautiful. When it comes to working with ICE Epoxy, Diana finds it especially rewarding because she knows the work will last for years to come.
The Vision
Alberta-Inspired Mug Holder/Hanger
Rob, the visionary, had just completed a Barnwood & Treasures project with his brother to display the Family Branding Irons. As his Mom admired the display she ruminated on her mug collection, given to her over the years, and how nice it would be to show them off as well. This sparked Rob's imagination, he had an idea for a keepsake holder to display her special mugs, using pieces of maple burls he had seen in D's woodpile. His Mom was born in Alberta, loved the mountains, and wildflowers. These are the things he wanted reflected in this piece. He wanted something unique that would stand out. He had experience using ICE Epoxy's ICE THIN, but he was interested in trying ICE Epoxy's ICE BOARD for this project.
Working together to turn the vision into reality
Rob and Diana worked together to bring the vision to life, using ICE BOARD as the medium. Rob provided design/vision and hands-on work throughout the process, while Diana offered helpful solutions and guidance. With her expertise and passion for art, they were able to create a beautiful keepsake holder that exceeded their expectations.
