Working with wood reveals the work of nature.
The appeal of working with wood resonates deep within me. I feel it connects me with something very fundamental about the world we live in. With every project I find discovery and awe at the natural patterns and designs that emerge from the material. These patterns are complex but natural at the same time.
My lifelong interest in craft and creating objects from diverse materials brought me to the field of woodworking over twenty years ago. I study and practice a wide range of wood working techniques, from stock selection and preparation, milling, joinery, carving and turning to marquetry, inlay, veneering and finishing.
To develop my designs, I lean on my interest in architecture and its classic forms and proportions. When this intention meets the natural patterns and textures of wood materials, a unique piece emerges that inspires reflection and meditation.
