Along with his passion for painting and writing, he loves to build interesting and intriguing furniture with the abundance of driftwood he finds on the shorelines of British Columbia.
Art is a way of life for Maxwell; he has painted and made crafts with driftwood since he was a young child and does not feel complete without stretching his artistic license. This furniture gives him what he needs pure creativity.
