Description
THE FAERY DRUM
* Mulberry Hardwood Frame with Comfort Hand Hold Grip.
* Hand Painted Forest Fairy Art
How it’s Made
The drum is made with a solid mulberry hardwood frame with a medium thickness goat hide that produces a bold song.
The hide is laminated to the frame for a proven, long lasting reliable mount.
At the back of the frame the padded handle is built on the cross buttress of two thick buffalo rawhide straps.
This produces a comfortable, stable hand hold.
I use hand rubbed leather dyes on the hide with a finish coat of matte sealer to ensure durability.
The artwork is hand applied using acrylic inks that serve to better penetrate the hide for extra durability.
The beater is included and is constructed from solid birch and maple hardwood, and then dyed and protected with
a urethane finish. The wooden ball head is wrapped with cotton batting and then wrapped with thick felt.

About innerRhythm
I became interested in the art of Drum making in 1996 and began making drums and various percussion instruments after a trip to Belize. While there I studied drumming and drum making under Emmeth Young located in Gales Point/Manatee. Emmeth is the village’s Griot (a term used to depict the Keeper of Traditions through dance and music) and Master Drum Maker/performer. After a month of study in Gales Point/Manatee I helped arrange a trip to the Ozarks for Emmeth, where I was living at the time. There we spent three months making drums and drumming/performing in the region. I learned that the drum is composed of three spirits united. One the tree, two the animal (hide) and three the drum maker. Through the blending of the three spirits each drum has a unique song when played. I learned traditional drum making through Emmeth and through the years I developed my own drum making art style. This initial experience has served to influence my art work as I expand through other artistic expression. The products I offer are hand crafted and infused with devotion to a peaceful, loving existence. Having gathered experience and inspiration from a somewhat bohemian lifestyle, I make my home now amidst the gentle nature of southwestern Oregon. It is my hope to share some inspiration with you through my expressions in functional art.
