About:I love creating art and functional art is a challenge that I am enjoying by creating one-of-a-kind canes and walking sticks, as these can be stylish along with functional and also comfortable to use. Each cane is a challenge to my artistic and technical abilities. I hope to make cane use a fashion statement as it once was.
