Zen Computer Desk And Chair
This is a table and chair I made for my Godson who is an Aikido Sensei. He told me it had to look like something out of "The Last Samurai". It is made of reclaimed redwood and I designed it to fit into a corner of his office. I very much wanted to capture the feel of a venerable, ageless temple atmosphere with it. It is solid, yet light, and very stable. I am inspired by the plutonic solids and I feel the triangle design gives that zen stability inherent in Budo. The chair is very low and grounded, light yet solid. I am very pleased every time I see Vittorio sitting at his desk. He likes the low center of gravity and the ability to easily rise from his chair (needed by Ninjas!). It is a perfect computer desk but you could use it on a balcony or veranda to place plants or a cup of tea or two. What do you like? What ideas do you have. I can make it in a square or rectangular shape if desired.

About Me:
Hi, I'm Anthony Benedict-Smith and I have been making things ever since my venerable Grandfather steered my adolescent creativity into his wood working shop. Oh, the days of hearing the wood-plane swish across my soon-to-be cricket bat and the smell of wood chips and sawdust (my Grandfather appreciated me sweeping them up too!).
It was there, knee-deep in wood and tools, that I began to be philosophically curious about how life works. How do miracles happen? How is life related to the shaping of a block of wood into something beautiful, functional and enduring?
I consider myself a mystical artist, both physical and digital. I am a 4.0 GPA graduate of Multimedia arts from Santa Barbara City College, CA (the #1 College in the US, 2014) and have extensively studied fine art around the world.
For the past decade, I have focused on orgone energy and how this elusive property provides quantum healing (miracles) to those with illness.
I, with my sweetheart Kathryn, and Godson Vittorio, have developed a range of orgone healing sculptures which are gentle, powerful and
work 24/7.
Key2 Life Pendants
This year, after a series of prototypes, we have created a series of orgone "Key2 Life" pendants using semi precious stones, magnetite, resin & 23.75kt gold leaf and pearlex mica. You can see them in my gallery.
Why the name Keys2 Life? Because each one is the Key2 happiness, the Key2 forgiveness, peace, pleasure, prosperity, protection, self-love and trust.
Disruption in the body's energy flow can have a profound effect on one’s physical and emotional health causing disease.
By administering suitable healing vibrations with Keys2 Life pendants, it is possible to correct the distorted energy pattern and bring the diseased physical organ into a healthy state.
I am extremely creative and good at what I do. I look forward to working with you and creating a beautiful work of art.
