John Kummer

Artist for Hire

My affordable version of stained glass. This is actually a fish bowl that I applied simulation stained glass to. I made a few of these, and dropped candles in them for my garden sitting area.
Hand painted gnomes. I didn't cast or sculpt the gnomes just painted them for outside.
In all my life doing fixer upper projects I always forgot to take a "before" picture. Well here it is... I took an old smoke covered 70's style table and turned it into a marblized / patina stylish table.
garden table before

Table from Gardening section of John Kummer

garden table after
This worked out pretty nicely, I went for a bike ride and found this sitting in an alley waiting for the dump. I went back grabbed it, and within 48 hours I had a new garden table for my garden area.
riss garden table
My daughter and I made this outdoor table for the garden using rocks we collected from Lake Michingan. It was an old spool from the electric company... now it's Kummer's garden table.
rock house
 This is a rock house that I made for my garden. This is the natural shape of the rock, I painted, and added moss for the garden effect. This is actually the first house I made, which in turn inspired me to make the little polymer houses found here.
