 | Making shavings is definitely one of the most satisfying pastimes! Finding the shape that I know is inside the piece of wood I am turning, always gives me a thrill - to a non-woodturner, that might seem very sad! I love the feel of wood, the pattern of grain and the magic when you apply the finish - and the wood glows. I have turned 'useful' items - but I enjoy the creative freedom I get when designing bowls and platters. I incorporate a variety of other craft techniques to make artistic pieces that I truly enjoy. I hope that you will browse my galleries and see the kind of work that I produce - and enjoy it too. I have written a few hints about how I achieve a certain result, but if you want to know more, please get in touch.
Some of my pieces are for sale. If you see something that you like that is not for sale, I do undertake commissions. |
