can you hear my tweet?

Written By Robin Wade

After seeing how Obama so successfully "spread the word" with social media, thought I should take a look.  After intentionally avoiding it for years, I finally took the plunge.  About three weeks ago I signed up for a Twitter account, then I followed with a Facebook.  

Planning to give a reasonable trial of a year or two.  After three weeks on Twitter, there are 140 followers.  Following are a few of the more interesting ones:

Museum Toulouse, Frye Art Museum, High Museum of Art, Amon Carter Museum, Getty Museum, The Oxford American, Nashville Zoo,  True Nature Trust, Nature Conservancy, Flower Magazine, San Diego Museum of Art,  Global Art News, Nashville Lifestyles, Times Daily, LushPad, Art Now San Diego, Huntsville Times, Gallery Stajka,  Dubai Visitor, HJM Art Gallery, MHL Magazine, Coastal Living Magazine,  Bauhaus News,  Alabama Tourism,  Southern Living Magazine.

Don't think I'll ever be doing a minute by minute tweet, but I'll try to update more regularly. 

 

Robin Wade
Robin Wade Furniture is a celebration of nature—a melding of a forward thinking commitment to the environment and a quiet, harmonious design aesthetic. From his "slow studio" in North Alabama, award-winning wood artist Robin Wade designs and crafts one-of-a-kind handmade furniture. Years before a piece is ready to enter a client's home or a gallery, the process begins—naturally—with the tree. Sustainably harvested, each specimen of hardwood is flitch sawn into natural-edge wood slabs, debarked by hand with a draw knife, and stacked to dry, usually for years, before the final cure in the kiln. From here, Wade and his team use both hand and power tools to bring Wade's vision to life, and then finish each piece with a hand-rubbed oil blend. Each organic furniture creation by Robin Wade Furniture balances the raw, natural beauty of environmentally, locally sourced hardwoods with minimally invasive, clean lines—a juxtaposition Wade calls both rustic and modern. “I haven’t yet found a better artist than nature,” he says.
