Tom Ralston and Buddy Rhodes

 

 

Rhodes and Ralston Partner on
Concrete Counter Tops
Concrete artist Buddy Rhodes and decorative concrete contractor Tom Ralston have begun a new hands-on Concrete Countertop Workshop series to teach interested contractors, craftsmen and artists how to make unique cast-in-place and pre-cast countertops.

Also featured will be Buddy Rhodes' signature "hand-pressed" technique, which he uses to create an extraordinary marble-like effect.

Originally a ceramicist, Buddy Rhodes abandoned his potter's wheel when he saw the strength, versatility and architectural applicability of concrete. His company, Buddy Rhodes Studio, manufactures the Buddy Rhodes Concrete Countertop Mix.
