Elvis at The HayLoft

Elvis the chair, that is. This was designed and build by Tom Ray, a Saskatoon artist. The actual piece is named "Wahoo".

When we stumbled across it at an opening at the Darrell Bell Gallery, Carrie and I both laughed because we instantly knew that it was perfect for the HayLoft. Darrell was even kind enough to deliver it in exchange for a tour of the house.

The HayLoft Grows to Three

This is my favorite photo of Eliot Olson, taken just 3 days after he was born. The photo is taken in Carrie's barn/office and Eliot is laying on our chair Elvis, which was made by local furniture designer and artist Tom Rae.

Morning Martin Photo

The sun was peeking in the east window and casting great shadows on the barnboard this morning. Had to snap this one with my #1 assistant, Mr. Eliot.

Paintings by Marie Lannoo

We've just added two great pieces from Marie to our art collection. These are in the Grain Elevator (my office) where the north facing windows cast a beautifully soft and diffuse light that helps show the unbelievable color depth that Marie is renowned for.

HayLoft Sandwich Board

The HayLoft sandwich board turned out to be a wonderful integration of design (Derek Bachman), material (salvage barn board) and execution (laser etched by Dave Zolinski @ Laser Impressions).

This one was a bullseye...
