ABOUT
It has always been gratifying to be able to create beautiful works of art from wood. It all started with helping my father work on projects in the garage as a young boy. That training produced an appreciation of what can be accomplished with raw wood materials. Wood art has been, and is my outlet for artistic expression. It is exciting to create a work of art with the many beautiful natural colors provided by so many different exotic species of wood from around the world. It is especially satisfying to make special requests, collaborating with clients to make exactly what they want. All my works are one of a kind originals. Although, I create my own templates and can reproduce works using similar types of woods.

Artist Mission Statement

EXPRESSIONS IN WOOD
Wood art has been, and is my outlet for artistic expression. It is exciting to create a work of art with the many beautiful natural colors provided by so many different exotic species of wood from all around the world, to shape and assemble something that can be appreciated for many years to come. It is especially satisfying to make special requests, collaborating with others to make them exactly what they want.
