Laguna Beach, CA 92651
Run time: 40:00 minutes
An up close and personal look produced by Charles Michael Murray into a forty-four-year journey of furniture mastery. Randy is captured in his Laguna Beach studio in Laguna Canyon and premiers his works at both the Sawdust Festival and the Festival of Arts of Laguna Beach. This is a story behind the hands and mind creating awe inspiring works. Randy’s vision captures the essence of furniture harmonizing as it flows from one shape into a curve forming a work of art. Randy candidly demonstrates and discusses the precise process from virgin wood to award winning works as he orchestrates making custom pieces for collectors in southern California. His work is a part of the Festival of Arts Permanent Art Collection.

My Legacy
I find my life legacy in every opportunity with you, yesterday, today, tomorrow. A sweet surrender. Every chapter we enter, brings something to share with our grandchildren.
Our Legacy
The child in me, brings out the child in you… we will never grow old! I love your hat, and everything beneath it. Kiss me like we are kids again, and again… then tell me more…
Family Legacy
Our tree… is a forest of memories. We stand as one, we can stand alone. Often on separate trails as we traverse the globe, but always lead us home for a hug and spirits to share.
My Friend’s Legacy
The Mountains remind me of you… strong, full of color, majestic unwavering in the wind. I miss you… I want to tell our story… together… wish you were here to enjoy our making…
My Profession
My life’s journey is in every note, every string tuned, in every tree that was made into an instrument. I have an orchestra of things to tell you… and our great great cousins too.
To Our Grandchildren
We have such a grand life… now lets tell the stories that only we know… our grandchildren can laugh in wonder… and ones that may change their lives…. forever and ever…
Message to My Family
My family never got to know me… but I am happy, happy that I can tell them how much I love them… every picture, every news clipping, every LP, every candle… every word… will tell my story.
My Soulmate
I lost you — although it wasn’t a storm…. you’re gone. Will we ever meet again? I want to describe the love we had for one another.
