AMOORE'S 1000 FEMALE VOICES
My mother in 1962 walking in Downtown Durham, NC, USA during segregation and the civil rights fight. Most of the stores she could not shop in. My mother had 5 children and my dad died in 1959. She was such a strong women.
AMOORE'S 1000 FEMALE VOICES a Art Ehibition and Lecture
I am slowly planning my art showing task. I hope to locate 1000 women who will join me as one of the subjects of this showing. It is in the planning stage then comes gathering information, getting sponsors and then creating a website for the participants to use as a repository for their thoughts, photos and daily diary(a private place for us to edit what will be public and not). I will provide a family tree(history area). Please consider and we can get acquainted while working.
THE PLAN:
Join me as a friend and model for my new body of artwork for 2010 to 2013. This exhibition/lecture will be based on 1000 women the true gift of and to the existence of life. My objective with this showing is to combine all my talents into one coherent and cohesive production. I need interesting people to tell their story of life as they see it and themselves with-in it. Their place in culture, work, society local and worldwide, life history through family
and friends. Basicly their biography and future as they intend it to be. This showing is meant to eventually bridge gaps between indivduals within themselves and within the human society and not a country (which is only another boundary put in place to prevent crossings in understanding). Join me in this endeavor and we may make a difference. You can contact me at the following email/chats
: aaronm.mooreiii@yahoo.com or amooreartandantiques@hotmail.com and view more about me at

BOOK AND CURIO CABINET
This piece is number three of the six for my customer. The
damage due to the garage was less dramatic than its counter
part(sewing machine). The finish was original and 70%
easier to strip. The unusal or troubles with this piece
were only stains and veneer verses solid wood one absorbing
the stain more readily tan the other. The sand papers use
were 100Grit, 120Grit and 220Grit. The three(3) to four(4)
clear coat were sanded after drying with the exception of
the last and final. This piece will also be fetured on my
DIY WEBSITE at http://diyamooreartandantiques.com/ and
http://amooreartandantiques.com/ .Thank you and I hope there
will be something within these sections that will help you
with your project.

SECRETARY BOOKCASE
This project has six (6) pieces of furniture to be
restored. They are a secretary-bookcase, ladies small
secretary, bookcase-curio, cedar chest, sewing machine
cabinet and ladies vanity. I will highlight the process of
restoration of them and the materials used. The full
process will be shown in its complete form on my sites at
http://amooreartandantiques.com/ and my do-it-yourself site
http://diyamooreartandantiques.com/ . I hope it will prove
helpful for some of you out there.Posted by Aaron Michael Moore III at 8:56 AM 0 comments Labels: Aaron Michael Moore III, AMOORE ART AND ANTIQUES,

Refinishing, Restoration Wednesday, January 21, 2009DIY (do-it-yourself) is green livining ! If you are like me you grew up collecting old things and
wanted to see the extended usefullness of things and
people. As such, the purpose of this page is to allow my
readers to share ways of living green and their DIY (Do It
Yourself) projects. I will try to also include other sites,
companies, educational institutions, and site highlights
here (http://diyamooreartandantiques.com/). I wish we could
all live a little more down to earth just as most of the
adults, that I knew, once did. Just twelve years ago I told
friends and family that the day is coming when all of us
will have to reverse course and back up to more of an
agrarian society. I also predict that each middle class
family will need some type of home garden in order to more
easily and healthily feed themselves. I've even cut my
garbage by three-fourths just by religously recycling, and
composting my paper, wood, and kitchen cuttings. My cousin
Ivan is a religious recycler of metals and takes mine which
collects and sell to the recycling company for a small fee.
These are just a few of the win win situations I've found.
A pet peeve of mine is the collection of yard rakings where
insects, rodents, reptiles and other outdoor pests breed,
or when thoses rakings are packed up in bags for the city
to pick up which is added taxes for us. The best
alternative to these two messy solutions to yard waste is
mulching on top of the grown, composting or burying (to be
turned in the spring). Grass clippings are also an excelent
way to feed your soil or compost. I can't understand the
ignorance of the consumer learning curve over common sense.
Grass is ment to feed and moisterize it self when it fall
back on the roots and the same with leave of trees. After
working with marine aquariums I realize the companies are
selling me a myth of care taking all there advice was to
make me keep repurchacing and it all shortened the life of
my marine animals. I will write more soon and finish the
intial set up. Be patient with me please. I am setting up
four historical art exhibitions/lectures for February thru
April.

SEWING MACHINE AND CABINET
The Sewing Machine is the second(2nd) of six pieces of furniture for this customer. This cabinet was a 1940(late) to 1950s. The biggest problen with this period of furniture(commercial) is the thinner veneer can be sanded through easily. Also another problem with all of these pieces of furniture was warpping due to the customer storing them in a garage with concrete floors. People usually are unaware that lots of moisture migrates from the ground through the floor and the body of the furniture captures the moisture like a parachute effect. Then it lingers there warpping, causing veneer to separate and worse case rotting sets in. This piece had all these problems and a few more. It is extreemly difficult to predict your degree of difficulty. I gave a two-third(2/3) price reduction thinking there was very little repair and the finishes were original, but, this piece had a chop shop(negitive) finish added to cove the flaws. Once stripped they were revealled. This caused me to spend three(3) weeks stripping instead of two(2) days.I lost my shirt on this piece of furniture. Its true you learn something new every day your alive and it never ends.The complete blow by blow refinishing job will be added to my DIY(do-it-yourself) site at http://diyamooreartandantiques.com/ and my online store at http://amooreartandantiques.com/ .
