Man and the Mirror: Artist Chet Mayes
CBS-2's Harry Porterfield's "Someone You Should Know" segments spotlight everyday Chicagoans who do amazing things. The people featured are always fascinating, and this time was no different.
On a recent segment, Porterfield featured Chet Mayes, owner of Finess Ladies Apparel, Boutique and Salon, a salon and art gallery located at 1951 E. 71st St. in the South Shore neighborhood.
Mayes, aka "Finess," does unique sculptures, portraits and other works of art with shards of glass from mirrors. Some of the mirror glass portraits he has created include President Obama, Elvis Presley and Oprah Winfrey. He is a hairstylist and a designer, too, and considers both a form of artistry as well.
