Adrian’s master craftsman honored by magazine

LukeBLuke Barnett’s reputation for creating top-notch wood furniture continues to grow. The Adrian man recently was named the “Top Windsor Furniture Craftsman” by Early American Life Magazine. “This award makes me feel proud,” he said. “Proud of not only myself, but also proud for my community. It is amazing that artists from our community are receiving recognition on a national stage. We have so many artists that are doing work on a world class level. Amy Philps, Mike Thompson, Chameleon Studios and Kris Cravens, just to name a few.
