Celebrations of Creativity and Craftsmanship

Lee explains, “My wood working career started with building and repairing furniture.  I have had a lathe for many years, but started learning what it would do in 1995 with a trip to an AAW annual meeting.  I have taken many classes, attended symposiums and practiced many hours to learn new skills.  My pieces are created to show the natural features of the wood and are one of a kind.  Bowls are finished with salad bowl finish and are all safe for food.  The burls are a unique growth on some trees and have very interesting features.  I use a bowl saver tool to turn many pieces from one burl and use the smaller cut offs for the vases and Christmas ornaments.”
