🎨About Fawn Li: "Following the wood...I start with going to the beach and looking for interesting shapes and knots in the piles of driftwood. I choose good strong pieces-but what's underneath-I've no idea. It's all gray and sandy, but the possibilities are endless. I find the center, the heart, listen to what the wood wants to be. I do everything by hand-all the peeling, whittling, sanding-so my fingers can find the silkiness of the finished piece. Feel them! Touch them. I made them for you. Protect yourself with them. They are pieces of art, but many are also pieces for self defense. Take it walking with you, keep it by your bed, or simply display it. But from gray to brilliant. Just from following the wood..."
