Fred Brandes Work Shop
East Hampton, NY 11937
I am an artist and craftsman who makes unique works that are owned by many private individuals and public collections. I make mixed media artworks that involve woodworking, finishing techniques and cutting seashells to make one of a kind assemblages. Some are referred to as painted sculptures due to the way I present natural sea shells that I hand cut within a shallow wall mounted box. The shells cuttings are made into jewelry. I also make wampum jewelry from the local quahog clam shells. The boxes are transformed to accommodate the table size. The spaces are changed to create varied compositions. I believe I am the first to exhibit and be published about the repurposing of printer's type cases or trays. I often up cycle printer's type boxes by building them in to tables. The boxes are transformed to accommodate the table size. The spaces are changed to create varied compositions. I also offer expert furniture repair, restoration and refinishing.

Provided by YP.comfred brandes single handedly performed a miracle, putting together an 8 inch thick, 10 foot table that had collapsed into itself-it took fred over 6 hours to figure out how to support the weight and attach it again--i luckily found his name by chance-and because he is an artist and master craftsman, i saved my table-or he saved it !!-
