About the Item

turned wood "I think of my wood turning as a way to reveal the beauty and texture found in the wood. The wood I use comes from trees, which are native to the southeastern United States. These are not considered to be exotic woods, however, they possess a richness in the grain and figure, which is too often overlooked. I create pieces using simple shapes and forms, which will best display the colors and patterns that are inherent in the wood. My use of smooth curving surfaces and lack of carvings or other surface embellishments, is intended to better display the wood and not compete with it. The finish enables the observer to get a feel of the warmth of the wood while allowing its intricacies to be imparted. I want the people who see my pieces to be able to enjoy them just by looking at them, and not having to know exactly how they are made, or having to read an explanation of the piece in order to do so."
