"My wood creations are primarily turned objects. The challenge of finding the beauty and uniqueness in a piece of wood, especially a burl or crotch of a tree, drives me to turn. I have experimented with cutting and laminations. I have developed a technique of inserting walnut shell slices into imperfections in bowls. Some people think that I am “nuts” when they see my wal”nut” burl forms turned completely out of walnut shells. My wine stoppers sell best, because of their unique appearance and price point. "
