My grandfather played a key role in teaching
me many things,
one of which was some basic wood working skills.
He always enjoyed working and building things with
his hands and shared that talent with me.
I
started turning wood in 1998 as a hobby to construct gifts for family
and friends. As I gained confidence and skill, I gravitated
to segmented turnings to explore and experiment with different woods, colors and
textures. This gives me the opportunity to stretch my
imagination and skills, combining small pieces of different types and
colors of wood into one masterpiece after another.
Experimenting with exterior shapes and designs within each piece has endless
possibilities that show the beauty and contrast of the woods
and keeps my mind racing from one project to the next.
All
pieces are of my own design with natural wood colors and textures. No dyes,
stains or paints are used to create any piece.
