Anne Kessler is known on the coast for her pastel landscapes of local rivers. She is an impressionist who specializes in the play of light and color on water surfaces. She likes to imagine what Monet would have painted in Mendocino County where she has lived and painted for over 40 years. She has recently taken a break from the Studio Discovery Tour to paint commissions for hospitals in Sacramento, Chicago and El Paso to name a few. They find her pastels to be calming, up-lifting and colorful. Anne is delighted to once again be showing with Craig Hathaway’s burl tables.

Craig Hathaway has been building custom made furniture since 1984 and has had great success with this work over the years, sending his tables all over the world. He tries to let the form made by mother nature capture the elegance of each piece, leaving the live/natural edge of each piece to speak for itself.
